Description G.Wolfe Woodbury 2007-11-18 09:54:14 UTC 
Description of problem:
 The bsd-games packages creates three groups and occupies the first few gid's
that should be assigned to the first few uid's. That is, bsd-games uses gid's
500 (gamehack)  501 (gamesail) and  502 (gamephant).  These gid's should be
reserved for the first few uid's.

How reproducible:
 Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install bsd-games

Additional info:
  none required

Comment 2 Wart 2007-11-22 03:37:18 UTC 
Note that this update will only affect new installs.  If bsd-games has already
created groups with the offending gids, then it won't recreate them with new gids.
