Package: adduser
Version: 3.102
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Parameter --ingroup simply does not work. To test, invoke adduser like this:
adduser peter --ingroup cdrom
I assume, a "cat /etc/group | grep cdrom" should bring something like this:
cdrom:x:24:peter
and not this:
cdrom:x:24:
If I am wrong, then this is a bugreport for uncomprehensible documentation,
since this says:
--ingroup GROUP
Add the new user to GROUP instead of a usergroup or the default
group defined by USERS_GID in the adduser.conf file.
And i wonder, what differs "GROUP" from "a usergroup", btw.
With best regards,
Daniel Migowski
