Drush cannot delete empty entityqueues on config-import

This is an interesting bug.

I created a new entityqueue called Homepage Featured 2.0 and then exported via drush cex sync. I did not add any items to the queue.

I then switched development branches, and did a drush cim sync.

I then get the following :

Config                                                              Operation
entityqueue.entity_queue.homepage_featured_2_0                      delete
Import the listed configuration changes? (y/n): y

Entities exist of type Entity subqueue and Entity queue Homepage Featured 2.0. These entities need to
be deleted before importing. in Drupal\Core\Config\ConfigImporter->validate() (line 737 of /var/www/cigionline.org/drupal/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Config/ConfigImporter.php).

The config-import command fails even tho there are no entities in the queue.

Going to the entityqueue page and deleting the queue manually works, but it should also work using the drush config-import command.
