Package: beep
Version: 1.4.9-1.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The file </usr/share/doc/beep/PERMISSIONS.md.gz> says (among other
things):

        Add users to `beep` group
        =========================

        The suggested way to regulate permissions to the speaker device is to
        have the system administrator add all users who should be able to run
        beep to the `beep` group.

        To add user `jane` to the `beep` group, the system administrator has
        to run a command like

            # usermod jane -a -G beep

However, the package does not create this group.  If the user should
create the group, it should be documented; if the package install should
create the group, then something is not working, because I don't have
that group after having installed 'beep'.


Have a lovely day!
Alex
