+    if ! getent group nut >/dev/null; then
+      addgroup --quiet --system nut
+    fi
+    if ! getent passwd nut >/dev/null; then
+      adduser --quiet --system --ingroup nut --home /var/lib/nut --no-create-home nut
+    elif ! groups nut | grep -qw nut; then
+      adduser nut nut
+    fi

why is the last bit needed?

+    if [ -d /var/run/nut ] ; then
+        chown root:nut /var/run/nut
+        chmod 770 /var/run/nut
+    fi

why does the nut user need write access there?  And why is this created
in postinst instead of an init script?

Cheers,
Julien
