Thank you all. Ran the find command and nothing showed up so deleted the four users. All cleaned up and no issues.

I followed the guide here
https://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev … e-to-ascii
which doesn't appear to deal specifically with systemd created users.

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply. I migrated from Debian 8 to Devuan 1.0 and I followed the guide on the Devuan site. I've since upgrade Devuan 1.0 to ascii. My query was regarding systemd users and groups following a migration from Debian. I have done a clean install on another machine and it doesn't have  these users. If they are not a problem I will leave them there.

My first post. Brilliant distro by the way!

Is there any advice on cleaning up after a migration from Debian? I noticed a few users in the /etc/passwd file with _that_ name. Should I remove them and what other things might I need to do?
