Previous versions of systemd used to create it, a mistake that has just been corrected: ,---- | systemd (239-12) unstable; urgency=high | | [ Martin Pitt ] | * Fix wrong "nobody" group from sysusers.d. | Fix our make-sysusers-basic sysusers.d generator to special-case the | nobody group. "nobody" user and "nogroup" group both have the same ID | 65534, which is the only special case for Debian's static users/groups. | So specify the gid explicitly, to avoid systemd-sysusers creating a | dynamic system group for "nobody". `---- So, nothing to worry about.
