From: Matthieu Baerts <matt...@kernel.org> Similar to wpasupplicant and NetworkManager, this group is used in the D-Bus policy, see the file src/iwd-dbus.conf.
A new post-install step is added, simply to create the netdev group. Note that 'addgroup' will return the exit code 0 if the group has been successfully created, or if it already exists. 'adduser' is then now needed to create the new group.
