Hi Marc,

Unfortunately I have no experience in creating test cases for a package build. 
However, point me in a direction where I can learn and I'm willing to look into 
the feasibility of contributing.

Cheers,
Merlin.

Would you be willing to submit test cases so that we can have QUOTAUSER
tested during package build? We would also appreciate code that has
adduser error out more nicely (preferably before doing any changes to
the system) of edquota isnt installed.

My main concern about QUOTAUSER is that we currently dont have tests and
know that it leaves half-setup users if edquota isnt there.

Greetings
Marc
