Bah, that's because I can't read. :)

The spec file used to delete the user on removal, but now it's
commented out:

%preun
if [ "$1" = "0" ]; then
    rm -f %{_localstatedir}/lib/%{name}/lib/hsqldb.jar
    rm -f %{_localstatedir}/lib/%{name}/lib/servlet.jar
    #%{_sbindir}/userdel %{name} >> /dev/null 2>&1 || :
    #%{_sbindir}/groupdel %{name} >> /dev/null 2>&1 || :
fi

I missed the # marks there.  Sorry for sending you on a goose chase.

That should work fine.  Just remember to change any files owned by the
hsqldb user.  The usermod command will change any files in the user's
home dir automatically, but files outside of the home dir need to be
changed manually.
