Bug Description
When adding a user, the 'groups' keyword only works if multiple groups are given in useradd syntax, i.e. as a single string without spaces
groups: adm,sudo,cdrom
I'm guessing the value is passed directly to the --groups command line option of useradd.
Any of the more intuitive syntax forms (including the one in the documentation at http://
groups: [adm, sudo, cdrom]
groups: adm, sudo, cdrom
groups:
- adm
- sudo
