libpam-modules 1.1.1-6.1 says: | If the user is not root, and the user ID is equal to the group ID, | and the username is the same as primary group name, the umask group | bits are set to be the same as owner bits (examples: 022 -> 002, | 077 -> 007). But libpam-modules 1.1.3-2 says: | If the user is not root and the username is the same as primary | group name, the umask group bits are set to be the same as owner | bits So matching ids is no longer needed in recent pam for correct functioning of the pam_umask module. However, I still think the lack of matching ids is at the very least ugly and confusing. It would be nice if adduser would try to make the ids match. I'm downgrading my bug report.
