--- Comment #1 from Conrad Meyer <c...@freebsd.org> ---
This indicates that the failing part of rmuser.sh is in rm_user():
182 ! verbose && echo -n " passwd"
183 verbose && echo -n " from the system:"
184 ${PWCMD} userdel -n $login $pw_rswitch
And the output of 'pw userdel -n vmail' (with or without additional -r) is:
pw: entry inconsistent
pw: pw_copy(): Invalid argument
Both the warning and EINVAL come from libutil's pw_copy(), while the err()
termination comes via the pw_update() in pw(8). The warning is produced if
pw_equal() fails between the old_pw supplied to pw_copy() and the record of the
same name parsed by pw_scan() out of /etc/master.passwd. pw_equal looks at
pw_name, pw_uid, pw_gid, pw_class, pw_change, pw_expire, pw_gecos, pw_dir, and
pw_shell.
pw(8)'s old_pw comes from GETPWNAM(), which ... is PWF._getpwnam... which is
just getpwnam(3) for non-relocated pw(8). getpwnam(3) goes through nsdispatch
and looks at /etc/pwd.db (or /etc/spwd.db) directly.
So it seems like your /etc/master.passwd is out of sync with your /etc/pwd.db.
