The "deluser" command is in the non-essential "adduser" package.  The "puppet"
package assumes this is present on install and purge, which may not be the
case.

I've attached a patch to fix this by:

 * Moving adduser from Depends: to Pre-Depends

 * Checking if "userdel" and "groupdel" is available during purge, and only
   removing users if they are.
