I'm assuming either Gene created it himself, because he thought he needed to, or his non-Debian installer created it, for reasons only the maintainer of said installer would know. Having that file on a non-NIS system doesn't actually hurt anything. I advised Gene to remove his in order to avoid confusion. We can all do with less of that.
