Can you remember (maybe from an earlier backup), what was the numerical gid of the Debian-exim group before it got removed? exim4 uses normal adduser/deluser calls to handle the system user and system group, and base-passwd only is concerned with the gid range below 100 where normal adduser doesn't do any group creations. I cannot reproduce this bug. Tagging appropriately. Please help. I will close this bug at the end of February 2005 unless the bug is reproducible by then.
