Bug#1057799: systemd: fails to configure

[JP Pozzi]

Hello,

Here the result :

grep users /etc/group /etc/gshadow
/etc/group:users:x:100:
/etc/gshadow:users:*::suricata

To circumvent the problem ;
1) I save /etc/gshadow, drop the "offending" line 
and restart systemd --configure
with success
2) Restore the saved gshadow file.

Regards 

JP P
