Package: adduser
Version: 3.59
Severity: normal
man adduser says :
"DESCRIPTION
adduser and addgroup add users and groups to the system
according to command line options
and configuration information in /etc/adduser.conf.
They are friendlier front ends to the useradd and groupadd =20
programs,
[snip]"
adduser can add a user to a group,
which neither useradd nor groupadd can
(at least it is not mentioned in their manpages)
so it can''t be only a frontend to useradd and groupadd ;
maybe a line should be added telling how users are added to groups ?
