Messages for package acct-group and acct-user

[mjbjr]

So, in the last 12 hours or so I've finished a new but
troubling gentoo install, but it boots, has network, etc.
though it was tougher than usual getting it done.

now, something new has cropped up when installing
major packages, postgresql in this case, but seen in a
couple of others...

mjbjr,

Things that can run as daemons usually hove their own user and group IDs.
The acct-group/* and acct-user/* packages are Gentoos way of creating and destroying these entries.
They make and remove entries in /etc/group and /etc/passwd.

Yes, its normal.
