Obviously nothing to be concerned about...
Oh, nice... I don't know why I didn't get that message.
Anyway, it is not a problem. If for some reason the removal should work, then the user/group will be added back immediately by the dbus upgrade.
Any suggestions on how these messages can be avoided?

I do hate our filesystem upgrades since /sys was made RO and pacman tries to remove it, but perhaps we should move the dbus user there. I think as a general rule, packages in [core] should probably avoid creating users and groups to avoid problems we've seen recently.
