be5486813b Add an "adm" group
Journald will chown all journal files to the adm group so that users
in that group can run "journalctl".

23cb924fbf Don't try to change the uid/gid of existing users
Unless we search the entire filesystem to do a chown *and* restart
existing processes owned by that user, there is no sensible way that
we can change uids/gids.  So don't try.

Also the gid is looked up in ids.gids if not specified.

6f8e30313f * The "audio" group should always exist, even if the ALSA module is
disabled, because udev rules refer to it.

f729f12e4e Some cleanups in the activation script:
* Moved some scriptlets to the appropriate modules.
* Put the scriptlet that sets the default path at the start, since it
  never makes sense not to have it there.  It no longer needs to be
  declared as a dependency.
* If a scriptlet has no dependencies, it can be denoted as a plain
  string (i.e., `noDepEntry' is not needed anymore).

c089738bdc * Use the shadow' package instead of pwdutils', `pam_login' and
`su'.
* The `usermod' from `shadow' allows setting a supplementary group
  equal to the user's primary group, so the special hack for the
  `nixbld' group is no longer needed.
* Removed /etc/default/passwd since it's not used by the new passwd.
  The hash is configured in pam_unix.
* Move some values for `security.setuidPrograms' and
  `security.pam.services' to the appropriate modules.

d7406769ac Making /var/run/utmp writable by the 'utmp' group.
Then, people can choose a setgid utmp for their xterm, konsole or whatever to get the terminals
reported there.

a104f07a07 * Move the definition of the Nix build users out of user-groups.nix to
nix-daemon.nix.
* Add an option ‘nix.nrBuildUsers’ to allow the number of build users
  to be overriden.

0d095de38a * Revert r18985, but now handle the case where a nixbld user doesn't
exist yet.  Ludo's original patch only worked in the "update" case.
  Also, do this only for the nixbld group.

6c30ba3e48 fix nix-build trouble after fresh install:
problem:
Nix only recognizes nixbld users which have nixbld set in extraGroups.
After installation the user was created by activate with group='nixbld'
and extraGroups=[]
After rebooting a conditional shell script fixed this by adding
extraGroups=["nixbld"].

This patches creates the user they way it was in the past with
group='nobody' and extraGroups=["nixbld"].

Another solution would be making nix be aware of the primary group as
well. However this would require everyone to update Nix after updating
NixOS.

331bee12a4 * Fold the functionality of guest-users.nix into users-groups.nix by
adding an attribute "password" that defines the default password for
  an account.  The default (null, as opposed to the empty string)
  means not to set a password.

ec55562ec3 * Move the configuration of the pwdutils (passwd, useradd etc.) to
modules/programs/pwdutils.
* Renamed config.system.shell to config.users.defaultUserShell and
  updated the description to make clear it has to be a non-store
  path.
