On https://firejail.wordpress.com/documentation-2/basic-usage/

it states:

# addgroup firejail
# chown root:firejail /usr/bin/firejail
# chmod 4750 /usr/bin/firejail

Would it not be preferable to use addgroup --system to create a system group with a GID < 1000 instead of a regular user group with a GID > 1000?

I'll leave it open for now to remember to modify the web page.

https://firejail.wordpress.com/documentation-2/basic-usage/ still uses addgroup without --system hence creating groups with gid >1000 (on debian), interfering with usual expectations.
