Comment 22 for bug 1659534

I inspected snapd and noticed that we don't invoke "userdel" or "deluser" in any production code. We have some tests that do use it and we now support --extrausers there.

I'm inclined to mark the snappy task as fix released, given that we inherit the relevant tools from core and core18 snaps which in turn are fed with updates from the archive. While in the past we carried this patch locally in a package override, given that it is now fixed in both Xenial and Bionic I cannot imagine anything else we'd have to do in the context of this issue.

With this rationale I'm marking it as fix released. Please reopen if there's more relevant work to be done.
