Out of interest: which tool did you use to remove the system user? deluser by default will remove the group along with the user automatically. That said, I'd be happy to provide a text which clarifies the above. Would ".. and you can now safely remove those system users along with their associated groups." be sufficient in your opinion? If not, would you mind providing an updated text? -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
