Hi,
i agree that this case is not covered by actual bb's deluser code.
What we cover at the moment is:
deluser USER (and group with same name if empty)
deluser USER from GROUP
The desktop util behaviour could be added tough.
By looking at the pseudo code you posted in a later
mail I wonder if it could be easier to change
deluser rather than update_passwd which is more complex.
Like:
do_deluser
get_user_group_list
do_delgroup of primary group
while_list
do_deluser_from_group
or
do_deluser
while getgrent
do_deluser_from_group(user, grname)
do_delgroup of primary group
Ciao,
Tito
