The python code is a bit cryptic ;-)
There are no examples and no comments, so it is difficult to understand,
but it would seem that whilst you use a 'name' to create a GPO, you must
use the GUID to delete it. How does Windows do this ?

I would too, but I didn't write the code ;-)

The code could probably be altered to use the name, but at the moment it
only works with the GUID.

I would agree, try upgrading and if it is still giving problems, it will
need fixing.
