commit 824fbd93c16edf04941a63072f3e83bcda8e838b
Author: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi@gmail.com>
Date:   Sun Jul 19 11:04:36 2026 +0100

    Install and use sysusers.d config files
    
    sysusers.d config files allow a package to use declarative
    configuration instead of manually written maintainer scripts. This also
    allows image-based systems to be created with /usr/ only, and also
    allows for factory resetting a system and recreating /etc/ on boot.
    
    https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/sysusers.d.html
    
    Note that this does not require a hard dependency on systemd,
    debhelper generates depetencies correctly so that they work out
    of the box on non-systemd and non-linux Debian builds seamlessly.

commit cf47b49defd71e808f662bfb8f93b2efee381a19
Author: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi@gmail.com>
Date:   Sun Jul 19 11:02:39 2026 +0100

    Stop deleting system users on purge
    
    This is widely considered bad practice, as the kernel recycles UIDs/GIDs.
    So any potential leftover file/directory can then become owned by the next
    user/group that gets added, with unpredictable consequences.
