And also, many ports split the add_users invocation over multiple lines, such that the line that sets the home directory might not be on the same line that includes the string "add_users".
I ran
dscl . list /Users | grep -v ^_.*
and noticed the user messagebus, so I filtered it from
port cat all
and realised that dbus set it, but MP didn't remove it when uninstalled.
MP should also take care of that.
