Fixed In Version:	sssd-1.11.5.1-1.el6
Doc Type:	Bug Fix
Doc Text:	Cause: The proxy provider's group handling had a bug where the provider expected every user has at least one supplemetary group. Consequence: If a user who belongs to his private group only was requested, the request finished with an error. Fix: The proxy provider was fixed to handle users with no supplemetary groups fine. Result: Requesting users with no supplementary groups works now.

To test, configure a proxy provider that proxies to files and request a user that is only a member of his private group, not any supplementary group.
