>Description:
There is a line including `gname=root' in /usr/src/etc/mtree/special,
but there are no lines started by `root' in /usr/src/etc/group.
This causes a mtree failure at a machine installed these files.
mtree: unknown group root
mtree: failed at line 92 of the specification
>How-To-Repeat:
Install these files and run mtree.
>Fix:
Apply a following simple patch.
