Errors from install:
====================

freefall# dpkg -i gnats_3.101-2.deb
Selecting previously deselected package gnats.
(Reading database ... 68336 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking gnats (from gnats_3.101-2.deb) ...
Setting up gnats (3.101-2) ...
* A 'gnats' user with incorrect home directory was found.  The entry should
  look like: gnats:*:41:41:Gnats Bug-Reporting System:/var/lib/gnats/gnats-db:/bin/sh

My /etc/passwd looked like:
===========================

gnats:x:41:41:Gnats Bug-Reporting System (admin):/var/gnats-db:/bin/sh

I changed the home directory and the install ran cleanly.
