[EP-tech] Re: Bug Report - Debian package

Hi Mark,

If you are trying to uninstall EPrints and its now claiming you have no user eprints which causes to to error just do "sudo useradd eprints" and run the uninstall again afterwards.

Kind regards,

David Whitehead.

Another bug, I just tried uninstalling the package. During the 
uninstall, it tries to remove the eprints user twice, which fails and 
leaves the package installed.
