[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:


$ groups ubuntu
ubuntu : ubuntu

The ubuntu user is not being added to the same set of groups he has been
previously added to

I'd suggest we need at very least to get the user into adm, admin.  I think the safest thing to do is probably to default to just the same list as is present in 12.04.

I noticed this when trying to read /var/log/syslog as ubuntu user.
