Description
The bookworm/reef cephadm package needs updating to accommodate the last change in /usr/share/doc/adduser/NEWS.Debian.gz:
System user home defaults to /nonexistent if --home is not specified.
Packages that call adduser to create system accounts should explicitly
specify a location for /home (see Lintian check
maintainer-script-lacks-home-in-adduser).
i.e. when creating the cephadm user as a system user it needs to explicitly specify the expected home directory of /home/cephadm.
A workaround is to manually create the user+directory before installing ceph.
Kefu Chai has created PR55218 to address this.
