Hi,

upgrade to 3.4 from unstable, will be in 1.3.1:

adduser (3.4) stable unstable; urgency=HIGH

  * fixed behavior when grouphomes=yes (#10422).
  * don't do shell expansion on system() calls (#10425).
  * copy to skel copies entire file (#10399)

What's the railroad to me ?
I never go to see
Where it ends.
It fills a few hollows,
And makes banks for the swallows, 
It sets the sand a-blowing,
And the blackberries a-growing.
                      (Henry David Thoreau)
