What I am now wondering is: why this package created an user when I installed it and did not removed this user when I removed the package?
I don't think any of them do that. Removing a package doesn't remove any data created by it, so you will want the ownership to still be there. Also, sometimes there are multiple packages using the same user.
So, why an installation script does not run rkhunter --propupd after the installation (if it detects that rkhunter is on board) in order to take care of owner's computer nerves?
I expect that there's an assumption that you know you're installing something. The usernames are generally pretty obvious.
