Let's be clear: the fix is known upstream for ages, see my comment #2
above. So no need to discuss it again, you just have to find somebody
willing to upload the version to Lucid.

The question of whether we should chown the home directory is another
problem, which could be easily solved using the $chown_home flag, but
the GUI should ask before doing so, since people may not expect this
behavior (e.g. home directory shared between several users). So file a
different report if you want this to happen.
