Bug Description
I've deleted the user created during setup, using another account, with the su command and then running users-admin.
Then, i tried to add a new user with the same username, but users-admin says the user already exists.
I've tried adding the user with the useradd command. This works, but then the terminal doesn't seem properly configured. The terminal problem was the only problem i noticed using useradd.
I'm using Xubuntu 9.04

I forgot to say that i've also moved /home/user to another directory before trying to add the new user with users-admin.
useradd, as i said, worked, but the terminal doesn't seem to be properly configured. It only shows $ instead of user@computer, and, key like up and down don't work. Might it be because i'm using a Portuguese keyboard and language?
