Package: adduser Version: 3.103 Severity: important When using deluser with REMOVE_ALL_FILES=1 and BACKUP=1, symlinks pointing to directory or dangling symlinks are not saved nor deleted.
Looking briefly to the source code of deluser, I think that other types of files (socket, ...) are not managed too... As directories are not empty (still symlinks, ...), they are not deleted either. So, in the end, we got a system with homedir not deleted...
