Description Karel Srot 2011-04-11 07:54:49 UTC
Description of problem:

After the xguest package is uninstalled, xguest user remains in the system and appears in gdm login window. I think the user (plus the mapping to xguest_u) should be removed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
always, install & remove xguest package

Comment 6 Lukas Vrabec 2016-11-02 17:30:16 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 6 is entering the Production 2 phase of its
lifetime and this bug doesn't meet the criteria for it, i.e. only high severity
issues will be fixed. Please see
https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ for further
information.

Feel free to clone this bug to RHEL-7 if it is still a problem for you.
