Why was this bug marked as invalid?
If a command gives a warning it shows that something is not properly
implemented.
Either the warning is deprecated or the cause for the warning is reasonable and
the issue should be fixed.
My understanding of proper programming is that every entry in /etc/passwd must
have existing values.
So if there is a home dir specified in /etc/passwd I expect it to exist or to
be created at boot time.
Ohterwise programs that may rely on the values in /etc/passwd may not work
properly.
