Package: adduser
Version: 3.112+nmu2
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I would love to have an option that would make adduser assign the same
numeric UID to both the user and the group created for that user. In
the default case, adduser would search for a number which is both
available as uid and gid before using that for both uid and gid.
Please consider implementing this.
Greetings
Marc
