enewgroup from pkg_preinst. That made it fail on fresh install, because
the new user was needed at the src_install time (for ownership of the
installed files). However, if the user was already present on the
system, it was just

It is useful sometimes to call it in pkg_postinst(), if the user/group
is needed at runtime and not during install-time.
