Pulp

try the following sequence of commands on a clean pulp install

$ pulp-admin auth user create --login=brian --password=redhat
User [brian] successfully created

$ pulp-admin auth role user add --role-id=super-users --login=brian
User [brian] successfully added to role [super-users]

$ pulp-admin auth role user remove --role-id=super-users --login=brian
An internal error occurred on the Pulp server:

RequestException: DELETE request
on /pulp/api/v2/roles/super-users/users/brian/ failed with 500 - 'permission'

When the -vv option was used I got

$ pulp-admin -vv auth role user remove --role-id=super-users --login=brian
