Comment 25 for bug 160862

even though my perl is a little dusty (haven't used it since college) this is my get in the GroupsConfig.pm.
sub get
{
  my ($self) = @_;
  my $groups, $logindefs;
  $self->SUPER::reset_counter ();

  $groups = Users::Groups::get ();
  $logindefs = &Users::Users::get_logindefs ();

  return ($groups, $$logindefs{"gmin"}, $$logindefs{"gmax"});
}
i don't see any loop there. so i guess you might have meant the Users::Groups::get() so i found /usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/Users/Groups.pm and put the lines in the get() while loop. (it had your line and copy vars) :-)

now the users-admin log really didn't change:
(users-admin:29856): Liboobs-CRITICAL **: oobs_group_get_gid: assertion `group != NULL' failed

now the stb-groups.log has more info. I'm not sure what the Syntax error is, but i copied and pasted your lines into the file, and they look correct to me. but my perl is still cleaning itself off. hehe.
