Verification for Lucid:
The version of vsftpd 2.2.2-3ubuntu7.1 in -proposed doesn't completely fix the issue. If a user whose name starts with ftp exists then the installation still fails.
To reproduce:
$ adduser ftpuser
$ apt-get install vsftpd
Using getent passwd ${_USERNAME} and getent group ${_USERNAME} instead of using grep should do the trick.
