+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #454091 +++ From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080416 Fedora/2.0.0.14-1.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.14 Description of problem: luserdel -r removes the user and his/her home directory but it leaves his/her mailbox in /var/spool/mail. Proposal: 1) Enhance the implementation of "-r" parameter so that luserdel will remove the mailbox too. 2) Implement a new parameter so that the home directory removal is independent on the mailbox removal. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libuser-0.56.6-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. luseradd testuser 2. luserdel -r testuser 3. ls -l /var/spool/mail/testuser Actual Results: Mailbox file in /var/spool/mail is present. Expected Results: Mailbox file in /var/spool/mail is not present.

Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping --- Additional comment from mitr on 2009-05-23 04:49:19 EDT --- Fixed in hg tip. --- Additional comment from mitr on 2009-09-14 13:18:29 EDT --- Fixed in rawhide libuser-0.56.11-1. Thanks for your report.
libuser-0.54.7-2.1.el5_4.1
Thanks for your report. This would be an incompatible change that is not suitable for an RHEL5 update release.
