For example, a user install xrdp with a user "xrdp" already existing. It then purges the package. The user xrdp should not be removed. This is not something easily achieved with userdel and groupdel. I am fixing the first part. If you want to keep the second issue, I will clone this bug. -- Vincent Bernat ☯ http://vincent.bernat.im Identify bad input; recover if possible. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan & Plauger)
