Noooo, I didn't - looking at the eprints3 folder it looks like the remove has taken a lot of the files already including the bin folder so I can't stop it from the command line.

I know I can -f remove the user outside of the apt-get remove process to force its removal but I've read that this is bad juju and can leave things in a rickety state.

Okay, so instead of keeping coming back and forth with little issues
in my new install I think I've managed to compound a few problems with
iterative changes. So, I'm going to start a-fresh and try to build
things up in a different way, relying less on my old install and more
on the changes I've picked up. Problem: I can't get EPrints to uninstall!

I've used a2dissite eprints and I'm using apt-get remove eprints, but
the process falls over when it tries to remove the eprints user. It's
constantly tied into a process - killing the process doesn't seem to
do anything as it simply picks up another process and the uninstall
won't proceed as it can't delete the user. Any ideas?
