Bug Description
Binary package hint: adduser
The manpage for adduser says the following:
Add an existing user to an existing group
If called with two non-option arguments, adduser will add an existing user to an existing group.
While this is true, it will also remove any users who are already in that group. This is counter-intuitive and very unhelpful!
