Thanks for the report. Are you able to modify any settings at all? Is
your system up-to-date? I reckon this is a duplicate of bug 463353,
which has been fixed recently.
About reusing an already existing home directory: you know what you're
doing, but the program has to make sure 1) the directory is owned by the
new user, and 2) if we change the permissions so that's the case, we
don't break the home directory of another user, in case it's shared -
and then, what to do? I'd like to get this fixed in the next release,
but that's not so simple, as you can see.
