---------------
gnome-system-tools (2.22.0-0ubuntu10) hardy-proposed; urgency=low

  * Created: 86_disable_existing_group_for_new_username.dpatch - disables the
    ability to create a new user whose name is owned by a perviously defined
    group, which, if allowed to happen, would overwrite the old group. If this
    happened to 'admin', for example, would render any system adminstration by
    sudoers impossible (LP: #236305).
