Public bug reported:

When cups has set the "SystemGroup" directive to an external group
provided through sss and cups starts before sssd has finished booting,
cups will crash because the group does not exist. For instance, with a
group named lpadmins@tests.local served from Active Directory through
sssd, if the sssd service hasn't booted before cups:

Mar 27 10:10:33 cups-sssd systemd[1]: Started CUPS Scheduler.

'exit-code'.

Mar 27 10:10:33 cups-sssd systemd[1]: Stopping Make remote CUPS printers

Mar 27 10:10:33 cups-sssd systemd[1]: Stopped Make remote CUPS printers

If sssd is running before cups starts, everything works as expected.
