Can you enlighten me as to why this should be a Good Thing? To me it feels as though the group and user ownerships are now merged into one, effectively _removing_ one possibility to differentiate. Of course I found how to switch it off in /etc/adduser.conf, but I think it should be something that adduser should at least _prompt_ about. Eric Meijer E.L.
