[Eliezer Croitoru]

Public bug reported:

when I am trying to purge glance-comon I am receiving and error.

Output of:

     5 case $1 in
     6 purge)
     7 if (which deluser && getent passwd glance) > /dev/null 2>&1; then
     8 deluser --system --quiet --backup-to /var/lib glance
     9 fi
    10 if (which delgroup && getent group glance) > /dev/null 2>&1; then
    11 delgroup --system --quiet glance
    12 fi
    13 ;;
    14 esac
    15
    16
+ getent passwd glance
glance:x:64062:64062::/var/lib/glance:/bin/false
+ getent group glance
glance:x:64062:
+ set +x

Shows that the glance user and group id are not system(ie under 1000).
Due to this the deluser and delgroup with the "--system" fails.

I don't know if the UID and GID are wrong or if the "--system" flag is wrong.
Either way it need to be fixed.

Thanks,
