Package: gammu-smsd Version: 1.23.0-1 Severity: normal
I have previously used wammu/gammu with a Nokia CA-42 (?) adaptor and Nokia handset. Without the adaptor and handset attached, I installed gammu-smsd and it created a configuration file and started gammu-smsd leading to output like the following. I would rather that the initial installation created a commented-out configuration file with instructions for customising it for use and leaving gammu-smsd not running than starting gammu-smsd with a non-working configuration: Feb 25 17:34:40 victoria groupadd[24232]: new group: name=gammu, GID=131 Feb 25 17:34:41 victoria useradd[24238]: new user: name=gammu, UID=120, GID=131, home=/nonexistent, shell=/bin/false Feb 25 17:34:41 victoria usermod[24243]: change user `gammu' password Feb 25 17:34:41 victoria chage[24248]: changed password expiry for gammu Feb 25 17:34:42 victoria gpasswd[24252]: add member gammu to group dialout by root Feb 25 17:34:48 victoria gammu-smsd[24292]: Configuring Gammu SMSD...
