However, Maemo isn't shipped with adduser at all! Busybox-power does provide an adduser applet, but it takes different arguments than the postinst tries to use.

The solution is rather simple though. Execute:

Code:

apt-get install adduser

and icecast2 will install flawlessly . The postrm script also uses utilities from the adduser package (namely: deluser and groupdel), so you shouldn't uninstall the package right after installing icecast2. It seems like the package maintainer simply forgot to add a dependency on adduser to icecast2.
