Description:
since during installation, a new user is created; the same user has to be removed, when the package is removed.

ATM I get this error:
systemd[1]: Starting Verify integrity of password and group files...
pwck[513]: user 'gnome-initial-setup': directory '/var/lib/gnome-initial-setup' does not exist
pwck[513]: pwck: no changes
systemd[1]: shadow.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT
systemd[1]: Failed to start Verify integrity of password and group files.
systemd[1]: shadow.service: Unit entered failed state.
systemd[1]: shadow.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.


Additional info:
* gnome-initial-setup-3.20.1-1

Steps to reproduce:
-install it
-run it once
-remove it
-check /etc/passwd file (run `pwck` or simply notice `shadow.service` error during the boot process)
This task depends upon

I think it's a valid problem. If we keep the system user on package removal, then we should keep its home directory too.
