Package: puppet
Version: 0.24.8-1
Severity: serious
Independently of #527381, the purge of puppet seems to fail (set -x
activated, and getent calls put in place):
lapse:/etc/puppet% sudo dpkg -P puppet
(Reading database ... 189333 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing puppet ...
Stopping puppet configuration management tool.

Done.
+ getent passwd puppet

The group `puppet' does not exist.

Errors were encountered while processing:

It seems like `deluser --system puppet` deletes the group when it's
empty, but this causes delgroup to fail.
I think it would be best if the group (and user) weren't deleted at
all, as there may still be files owned by them on the system.
Also, for your information, some discussion about this on #d-d,
although I think not removing user or group is the best solution.
10 17:32 < madduck> is it normal that deluser --system username deletes the
user and the group?
10 17:33 < azeem> adduser adds the group as well, no?
10 17:33 < rleigh_> madduck: This bizzaro behaviour confused me a few weeks
back when I added a buildd user+group to the buildd package.
10 17:35 < rleigh_> adduser does add the group as well, but what if there are
other group members on removal. I tested a number of ways of addition and
removal, and
the observed behaviour seemed rather unclear and
under-specified.
10 17:35 < rleigh_> Sometimes it would keep the group around, and other times
not. This is with different combinations of --group and --system etc.
10 17:43 < madduck> rleigh_: :((
10 17:44 < madduck> rleigh_: it seems that deluser --system foo removes the
group foo is there are no more members
10 17:48 < rleigh_> madduck: That sucks. I went the the approach shown in
buildd.postinst and buildd.postrm at
http://git.debian.org/?p=buildd-tools/sbuild.git;a=tree;f=debian (based on
looking at the postgresql-common code)
10 17:49 < rleigh_> Here we just remove the user and assume that if the group
wasn't empty, deluser won't delete it (I'm slightly unsure if it's OK to
unilaterally
remove people from groups on package removal--I decided to
be convervative and leave them).
10 17:51 < madduck> rleigh_: can i quote you in a bug report?
10 17:52 < rleigh_> madduck: Sure.
10 17:56 < madduck> i am going to suggest not to remove user/group anyway,
since they might still own files.
