Hello,

we compile cups-2.3b5 on SuSE Linux SLES 12 to use it on SLES 12 and
SLES15. It turned out, that SLES 15 does not have any group 'sys' by
default:


SLES 12:

# cat /etc/SuSE-release 
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 (x86_64)
VERSION = 12
PATCHLEVEL = 3
# grep sys: /etc/group
sys:x:3:
# ls -lR /usr/local/sisis-pap/cups2 | grep sys
dr-x--x--x 2 lp sys 4096 25. Jul 2018  certs

SLES 15:

# cat /etc/os-release
NAME="SLES"
VERSION="15"
VERSION_ID="15"
PRETTY_NAME="SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15"
ID="sles"
ID_LIKE="suse"
ANSI_COLOR="0;32"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:suse:sles:15"
# grep sys: /etc/group

As the dir 'certs' is the only file/directory owned by group 'sys', how
this should be handeled on SLES 15?

Thanks

	matthias
