It's still good to use deluser. It's less lowlevel and supports flags like --system, which we want.
Here's a debdiff against Jaunty for an SRU. I'm not 100% clear on the necessity, though. Does sysklogd get purged during a normal install? I would have assumed just a normal remove. The patch ignores return value 1 (which means either that the user is not a system user or that the user is still logged in). Debdiffs for sysklog in Karmic and rsyslog in Karmic are coming. I nominated this bug for Jaunty, but I only wanted to nominate sysklogd, not rsyslog... ** Attachment added: "sysklogd for jaunty" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/31909636/deluser-jaunty.debdiff -- package sysklogd (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401056 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
