Package: boinc-client
Version: 5.4.9-1
Severity: normal


when using boinc-client in a mixed stable testing Debian environment
the postinst stops with the following error:

Setting up boinc-client (5.4.9-1) ...
useradd: unknown group boinc
adduser: `/usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/lib/boinc-client -g boinc -s /bin/false -u 111 boinc' returned error code 6.  Aborting.

Using the adduser version from testing everything ist working ok.
