[Bug 789705] Re: package boinc-client 6.10.59 dfsg-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1: userdel: user boinc is currently logged in

[Daniel Hahler]

The "crash" happened when you purged boinc, not during its execution
later on.

If it works now for you, everything is good.


However the bug is:
This means that the process was still running when the script tried to remove the user.

http://wiki.debian.org/AccountHandlingInMaintainerScripts discusses if a
system user should get deleted after all.

Anyway, the server process should have been stopped anyway.

See bug #387945 about this issue in couchdb.
