Bubla: the procedure you describe does not completely destroy /etc/group. It removes all users from the admin group, making it impossible to fix the problem afterwards. But this bug has been fixed in the development version, and users-admin will now refuse to overwrite the existing group (just checked both versions).
It seems to me that the current report is about a strange result where most groups are removed, and the newly-created group has GID 0 (reserved to root). So I'd like more informations from Dierk Scharbert, RogerP and fishexe. I know that's difficult to find, though... ;-) BTW, I found this thread with useful logs, the first detailed data I've ever read about that: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6614344 -- users-admin (System->Administration->Users and Groups) overwrites group file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160862 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
