Bug#4295: majordom passwd line is wrong



>/etc/passwd has
>majordom:*:30:30:majordomo:/var/majordomo:/bin/sh
>
>The group should be `majordom', not `majordomo'.

All else aside, the correct passwd line is:

    majordom:*:<uid>:<gid>::/usr/lib/majordomo:/bin/sh

There should be no such directory as /var/majordomo; it certainly
doesn't appear in the Majordomo package, nor is it likely to do so in
the near future.  If it appears in any package then it is a bug in
that package.

I see no point in having anything at all in the comment field.

The correct group line is:

    majordom::<gid>:

ttfn/rjk
