Bug Description
Since version 3.121ubuntu1 adduser's postinst script creates /etc/adduser.
Because of the change below the postinst script changes packaged /etc/adduser.conf and creates /etc/adduser.
- Enable private home directories by default (LP: #48734)
+ Set DIR_MODE=0750 in the default adduser.conf
+ Change the description and default value to select private home
directories by default in debconf template
+ Change the DIR_MODE when private home directories is configured via
debconf from 0751 to 0750 to ensure files are truly private
The .dpkg-save file shouldn't be present on debootstrapped system.

From what I can see of this postinst this looks to be a bug from adduser in debian itself - and would appear to come from https:/ /salsa. debian. org/debian/ adduser/ -/blob/ master/ debian/ postinst# L33 - ie. if the default value is unchanged then an /etc/adduser. conf.dpkg- save is always generated when the value of DIR_MODE is appended to /etc/adduser.conf.
Can you confirm if this also occurs when debootstrapping a system from debian?
