Rationale:
A users home directory may hold .ssh/authorized_keys and thus allow users to login without password.
Thus our company has a check for those files because an unclean authorized_keys can be a big security issue.
This check fails if a home directory doesn't exist.
We can try to fix the check but as I stated the expectation is, that a freshly installed system wouldn't have any wrongly setup passwd file.
