Title:
  sudo config file specifies group "admin" that doesn't exist in system

Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  
  In the configuration file for sudo ( /etc/sudoers ) you find this section:

  # Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
  %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

  # Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
  %sudo   ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

  The sudo group is in /etc/group, but not admin group. This is a
  cosmetic bug, but if we specify a group that are allowed to use sudo
  command, then the group should exist in the system too.

  Installed version: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS all upgrades up to 9 july 2014
  installed, 64 bit desktop ISO used for installation.

  Sudo package installed:
  ii  sudo                        1.8.9p5-1ubuntu1   amd64              Provide 
limited super user privileges to specific users
