Hi,

Following situation: Older mailman ebuilds used to set the mailman user home 
to /usr/local/mailman (which is obviously wrong).

Now with the new mailman ebuild, various directories are configurable.

The mailman user is created with the enewuser macro. Now, the problem is that 
enewuser just exits with zero if the user already exists. Thus the old 
homedir is kept.

What is the correct way to handle this? I'd suggest that enewuser might get 
some "force"-parameter that tells it to delete and recreate the user if it 
already exists. Thoughts?

(If noone comes around with a better idea, I'll open a bug with a feature 
request within a few days)
