[adduser] default group for 'dynamically allocated system users'
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
