The page does say: """... create a new user "buildbot" if it doesn't
exist (your package manager might have done it for you)""", but it'd
be nice if it could clarify which are known to do it and which are
known not to, eg "(the Debian and Red Hat package managers will do
this for you)". Or is that too much of a moving target to be worth
trying to specify?
