I have a package (apt-p2p) that I want to adopt that removes its daemon
with deluser in postrm (on purge). This causes issues (piuparts
complains) because deluser is not essential and dependent packages are
not guaranteed to be installed at the time of postrm.
So, should I:
* Not remove the user on purge (as I have seen done in other packages)
There seem to be consensus that system users should not be removed.
Please see bug #621833 for details.
* Remove it in prerm after the debhelper section
I wouldn't do that.
