To make it more clearly, I have attached another logfile. This new one is from Ubuntu 12.04 in the same environment as above.

If you diff it with the stracenewgrp.log you can see, that in Ubuntu 14.04 the newgrp tries to allocate files associated to the language settings in /usr/share/locale while this is not the behaviour in 12.04. For what are those files located in the locales needed? The files it tries to access are not installed nor can they be installed as far as I know (please correct me if I am wrong here). It seems to me that it uses these files for the whole group handling which does not make sense at all to me. The /etc/login.defs does make a lot more sense...

Hope this helps.

Kind regards
