No - its a grave bug in the postinst - 

  1 #!/bin/sh -e
  2 
  3 # create gsmsms group if necessary.
  4 if ! grep -q ^gsmsms: /etc/group; then
  5 #      echo Adding system group: gsmsms.
  6        addgroup gsmsms --system gsmsms
  7 fi

addgroup with 2 arguments adds THAT specific user to a group.
You are trying to create a group so using

        addgroup --system gsmsms

would be the right thing. Its not the same as the original #346238.
