Public bug reported:
I'm creating temprary users to diagnose a different problems I'm having.
users-admin is making this harder. When I delete a user, not all info
disappears and when I restart user-admin the "frakenuser" is back in the
list of existing accounts, and survives multiple attempts to delete it.
In this case, I found entries in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. When I
manually deleted them, the problem was solved.
Could it be that users-admin is confused by the situation where there
are entries in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, but no home directory
exists?
