Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

Hello,

I added a new user (Desktop-user).  This user did not get a new group,
nor was it added to the "users" group.  Instead, it was added to an
existing user's group.  To be more concrete:  The primary user, created
when first installing the system, was "mstoll" who also had hos own
group "mstoll" (uid: 1000, gid: 1000).  When I later added another user
"shaile", no new group was created.  Instead, shaile was added to group
"mstoll" (gid 1000).  uid is 1001 as expected.  This might be related to
bug #83373 and bug #71394.  If not careful, this allows new users to
access potentially private files from a previous user!
