Example:

$ metastore -a
./unknown-uid:  changing metadata
./unknown-uid:  changing owner from przemoc to przem0c

Issue can be noticed only when verbosity is increased.

$ metastore -av
...
./unknown-uid:  changing metadata
./unknown-uid:  changing owner from przemoc to przem0c
        getpwnam failed: No error information
...

This should be improved.
