This is an important feature for Ubuntu Core [Test Case] 1. install the libnss-extrausers and configure it 2. run "groupadd --extrausers foo" 3 check /var/lib/extrausers/group for the new "foo" group 4. run "groupdel --extrausers foo" 5. check /var/lib/extrausers/group and ensure the "foo" group is removed [Regression Potential] * low: this adds a new (optional) option which is off by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1840375/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
