Title:
  glance user should not be in the 'nogroup' group

Status in “glance” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  glance  2011.3~rc~20110908.r1005-0ubuntu1

  The glance package creates a glance user who's primary (and only)
  group membership is 'nogroup'. This results in files/directories
  created by the glance user having 'nogroup' group ownership. This is
  considered a bad thing.

  Please create a 'glance' group and add the glance user to this group
  instead.

  = Tests =

  $ id glance
  uid=108(glance) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup)

  $ ls -al /var/lib/glance/images/1 /var/log/glance/api.log
  -rw-r--r-- 1 glance nogroup 4107552 2011-08-03 13:02 /var/lib/glance/images/1
  -rw-r--r-- 1 glance nogroup 6325722 2011-09-16 14:02 /var/log/glance/api.log
