[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#1061131: Package does not purge quite well, but maybe could.

Package: libvirt-daemon-system
Version: 9.0.0-4

I installed this package by mistake, by installing virt-manager with
recommends... so i purged virt-manager (and dependencies) to then
reinstall it.

... and noticed the following warnings:

Purging configuration files for libvirt-daemon-system (9.0.0-4) ...
userdel: group libvirt-qemu not removed because it is not the primary
group of user libvirt-qemu.
dpkg: warning: while removing libvirt-daemon-system, directory
'/var/lib/libvirt/qemu' not empty so not removed

O.o ... think that there is no need for the '/var/lib/libvirt/qemu'
not empty, since it only contains another empty directory inside:
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/checkpoint/

As for the group libvirt-qemu complain, i have no idea about it

ps: similar happens to libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter, for which i
will also fill a bug report.
