Hi,
So when I use deluser I don't have this problem.  When I use vipw,
i get a warning:
You have modified /etc/passwd.
You may need to modify /etc/shadow for consistency.
and actually none of the test users are deleted for me.
No comments around the code spitting out that comment, so I have
to assume it's somewhat intentional.
So this certainly doesn't seem like a bug in the package to me.
However a feature request against github.com/shadow-maint/shadow
would be appropriate.
