Wind River Support Network

Description

A couple of packages are creating groups in the "user" range when they should in fact be creating "system" groups.

For example, proftpd and cronie:

GROUPADD_PARAM_${PN} = "${FTPGROUP}"
./meta-networking/recipes-daemons/proftpd/proftpd_1.3.4b.bb
GROUPADD_PARAM_${PN} = "crontab"
./oe-core/meta/recipes-extended/cronie/cronie_1.4.8.bb

They should use the --system option, something like this:

GROUPADD_PARAM_${PN} = "--system ${FTPGROUP}"

The customer noticed this with cronie, I also saw it with proftpd, there may be others.
