Public bug reported:
users-admin doesn't completely delete user accounts when the user's home
folder has been encrypted and the user has logged in at least once.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new user using users-admin, making sure to check "Encrypt home
folder to protect sensitive data"
2. Log into new user account
3. Log out and back into original user account
4. Using users-admin, attempt to delete newly created account, opting to delete
home folder. The account will disappear from the list of user accounts however
the account hasn't been properly deleted and will reappear if users-admin is
started again and will also appear in the login manager. The home directory has
been deleted but the account persists in /etc/passwd.
Accounts are properly deleted when the user's home folder is not
encrypted or the user hasn't logged in at least once.
