Subject: [bug] useradd oddness

Hey,
Two questions:
First: I'm testing a script on my laptop that uses "useradd -G <group>"
The expected action is for it to add the user into each group in the comma
delimited lsit following the -G switch. But, the actual result is that
useradd just spins its wheels and gives me lines like the following in
/var/log/messages:
Feb 4 11:20:29 dingo adduser[2834]: new group: name=foo, gid=502
Feb 4 11:20:29 dingo adduser[2834]: new user: name=foo, uid=502, gid=502, home=/home/foo, shell=/bin/bash
Feb 4 11:20:29 dingo adduser[2834]: add `foo' to group `users'
Feb 4 11:20:36 dingo last message repeated 50446 times
The users group exists in /etc/group with a GID of 400.
This is what I would call broken :) Can someone else confim this?
I'm using YDL2.0, so this might be fixed iin 2.1.
Second: Where does one submit distro related bugs for YDL? If this is a
bug, I'd like to send it to the right place so it can get fixed. I'm
thinking there's no bugzilla.yellowdoglinux.com (that's a mouthful :).
