+Description: add and remove users and groups
+ This package includes the 'adduser' and 'deluser' commands for creating
+ and removing users.
+ .
+ - 'adduser' creates new users and groups and adds existing users to
+ existing groups;
+ - 'deluser' removes users and groups and removes users from a given
+ group.
+ .
+ Adding users with 'adduser' is much easier than adding them manually.
+ Adduser will choose appropriate UID and GID values, create a home
+ directory, copy skeletal user configuration, and automate setting
+ initial values for the user's password, real name and so on.
+ .
+ Deluser can back up and remove users' home directories
+ and mail spool or all the files they own on the system.
+ .
+ A custom script can be executed after each of the commands.
