Absense of user and service #361

@ghost

Description

Debian 12
There's no entry in /etc/passwd for stubby, there's also no service file (systemd).
The expectation was that those would be created when installed by a package manager.
Exceptional or rule?

This results in monitoring pollution with shell scripting failures, but worst, it hurts ones eyes (kidding)

Eg:
aliensRus@planetEarth: ~# ss -tulnep | grep LISTEN | sudo lsof -i -n -P
lsof: no pwd entry for UID 64707
stubby 9194 64707 3u IPv4 38172 0t0 UDP 127.0.0.1:8053
lsof: no pwd entry for UID 64707
stubby 9194 64707 4u IPv4 38173 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.1:8053 (LISTEN)
lsof: no pwd entry for UID 64707
stubby 9194 64707 5u IPv6 38174 0t0 UDP [::1]:8053
lsof: no pwd entry for UID 64707
stubby 9194 64707 6u IPv6 38175 0t0 TCP [::1]:8053 (LISTEN)

64707 should be/could be "stubby"
