Title:
  users-admin retains info about deleted user

Status in “gnome-system-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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?
