Hi, adduser has been putting newly created 'dynamically allocated system users' (adduser --system) into the nogroup group. It is also documented to do so. There is an ancient bug report complaining about this, and I think this is a valid complaint. However, /usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.txt.gz says that no files should ever be owned by nogroup, making adduser do the right thing in its current state.
Can you come up with a better default for users created with adduser --system without requesting a dedicated group? Greetings Marc -- -------------------------------------- !!
