+      password or account and remove the account later. The
+      <option>-f</option> option can force the deletion of this account.

+      as the user. To avoid inconsistencies in the passwd and group
+      databases, <command>userdel</command> will check that this group is
+      not used as a primary group for another user, and will just warn
+      without deleting the group otherwise. The <option>-f</option> option
+      can force the deletion of this group.
