This is on Debian etch. Running the rspec tests in master branch as a regular 
user produces:

This is probably because only usable provider on this platform uses tools which 
are outside non-root users path. However even if the tools were available, 
creating the user would fail with insufficient permissions.

Out of curiosity: what makes sure the test user disappears after the test 
finishes?
