Hi everyone, trying to figure out if this is a bug or just a misunderstanding. 
I’m attempting to install Gnome on the generic cloud init image of Debian 12 
using the package task-gnome-desktop and it’s failing because on the cloud 
images the netdev group is created with a GID > 999. This causes the 
network-manager package to fail because it expected netdev to be a system group 
aka GID < 1000. Changing the GID to something else works and the install 
continues as normal. Installing a desktop environment on a cloud image is a 
little atypical but I’m setting up guacamole servers.

Thanks
Shawn
