I might just jump in here. I'd never used pwck before. It told me I had
a couple directories non-existent such as /var/spool/uucp and
/var/gopher for system users adm and gopher respectively. Is it fine
just to mkdir these missing dirs to satisfy pwck or should the user
accounts be deleted? I don't use uucp or gopher so I suppose that's why
the directories were never touched?
