Upgrading from groovy to hirsuite, base-passwd asks if the `irc` user's home directory should be moved from `/var/run/ircd` to `/run/ircd`. Having no IRC server installed makes this very confusing, but appears harmless (https://askubuntu.com/questions/876975/user-irc-inside-of-default-ubuntu-16-04-server). Possibly caused by https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=946884, but can this not prompt the user for a decision?
