[Bug 573391] Re: package snmpd failed to upgrade: userdel: user snmp is currently logged in

Affected code:

if [ ! `getent group snmp >/dev/null` ]; then
   deluser --quiet --system snmp
fi

The upgrade only deletes (and recreates) the user if the group "snmp"
doesn't exist on the machine. That leaves a window for a system where
user snmp exists, group snmp doesn't, and snmpd is running under that
user.
