I can confirm that, sockets are not removed. /usr/sbin/deluser, line 299 > (-s $File::Find::name && push(@dirs, $File::Find::name)) || that should be a capital "S", I will fix that. But I cannot confirm it for named pipes/fifos. But deluser still does not remove block or character devices then. I will add a warning if deluser encounters such a "file".
