Hi,

I’m hitting a strange problem on a freshly installed Ubuntu 14.04 box. There’s a user named “irc” by default.  
When I alter the user with the following playbook, the run shows ‘changed’. A subsequent run does not show “changed” so idempotency works here.  
However after restarting the server and running the playbook again, it shows again as changed. But I cannot see any changed in /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow and the user isn’t even changed with the task.

`

- hosts: localhost  
tasks:
- name: test  
user: name=‘irc’  
`

Here’s the output of the playbook:
