886	Documentation should specify adding a mediagoblin group.	Daniel Krol		"`docs/source/siteadmin/deploying.rst`

It says to create the mediagoblin user with the `--system` option. Then it says to create the directory in `srv` and chown it to `mediagoblin:mediagoblin`. However when I do that, chown complains that it's an invalid group. From the `adduser` man page:

{{{By default, system users are placed in the nogroup group.  To place the new  system  user  in  an  already  existing  group,  use  the --gid or --ingroup options.  To place the new system user in a  new  group  with the same ID, use the --group option.}}}

Sounds like it doesn't automatically create a group.

I'm on Debian 7, perhaps it's different in a different distribution."	defect	closed	minor		documentation	fixed
