Reopen Issue

https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Packaging:UsersAndGroups&oldid=331685 had a symlink to the (now defunct) setup dist git file with a list of uids and gids. It needs to be updated and restored.

https://pagure.io/setup/blob/master/f/passwd and https://pagure.io/setup/blob/master/f/group most likely.

I do not agree that the guidelines should have a link to that information. We really shouldn't be linking to random files down in some git tree.

    another ticket with a draft policy change. (geppetto, 18:37:34)
