[Bug 1407841] Re: docker.io package fails install if docker group is pre-existing

I'm marking this as Opinion.

Here's why:

The local sysadmin may have created a Docker group, but *not* intended
to give the rights to use Docker to those users. Remember, the Docker
group is root equivelent.

    [tag at cassiel:~][⌚ 09:02 PM] ♥  docker run -it --rm -v /./:/mnt debian:unstable chroot /mnt
    # ls /home
    tag

As such, on conflict, I'd prefer a failure to install.

Marking Opinion.
