I guess since you're not removing the user after any files they owned are purged (which necessitates doing it in at purge) then doing it in at remove time is just fine. If the depends on adduser is still valid at remove time (I'm certain it is), then I agree it lockuser could be in the adduser package. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
