If you run 'deluser --remove-all-files' to remove a local account, it
will comb all of AFS to remove their files.
I see this problem on a Ubuntu machine with the Debathena packages,
but I'm guessing it would also be a problem on a private Debathena
workstation or any Debian/Ubuntu machine using a networked filesystem.
