Hi @all,

I had the same problem today on Hardy with the latest updates. I did
boot with a live CD and restored my password, shadow and group file from
by backup. I found out, that there have been 5 lines of characters with
hex sequence 0a 41 in the group file. The line before this sequence is
repeated thereafter.

I deleted the lines with these characters and users-admin works correctly.
With these line in the group file, users-admin destroys all groups, except the first two lines (root and daemon).

I cant see any DBUS errors in my daemon.log or syslog file.
