No no.
I think you found a genuine bug: ‘useradd’ (which creates the home dirs)
is invoked typically during boot, at a time where /home is not mounted
yet. Thus, it probably created the home directory on the root file
system.
There’s no trivial fix, though. Could you email that to
address@hidden so we keep track of it?
Thanks,
