Bug#661203: jenkins: Install reports chown jenkins:jenkins invalid group

[Mark Waite]

Package: jenkins
Version: 1.424.2+dfsg-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

My Debian Wheezy system is configured to use the debian-stable repository
from jenkins-ci.org to download the latest stable Jenkins release.  Today
I performed my regular weekly update with aptitude and was surprised to
receive a new package named jenkins, along with a package named 
jenkins-common.

While installing the new packages from apttiude, a message was reported
"chown jenkins:jenkins invalid group" or something similar to that.

The message does not seem to have harmed the installation of Jenkins.

The machine had already been running a Jenkins version as delivered
by jenkins-ci.org, so this issue may be related to the transition
from a package provided by jenkins-ci.org to a package provided within
Debian itself.

Mark Waite
