Package: bind 9.10.1.P1-2

Description: The bind package does not create a bind group in /etc/group, /etc/gshadow

This results in shadow.service failing:

-----------------
Feb 11 00:00:21 www systemd[1]: Unit shadow.service entered failed state.
Feb 11 00:00:21 www systemd[1]: shadow.service failed.
-- Reboot --
Feb 12 00:00:05 www systemd[1]: Starting Verify integrity of password and group files...
Feb 12 00:00:05 www pwck[15804]: user 'bind': no group 119
Feb 12 00:00:05 www pwck[15804]: user 'bind': directory '/var/cache/bind' does not exist
-----------------

Additionally, it appears that the prescribed home directory for bind, /var/cache/bind, isn't created by default on package installation. Either the home directory for bind should be changed to /var/named or the /var/cache/bind directory should be created by the package.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  User requested: My bad. I forgot that on Arch the named user is named, not bind. Please close this bug report with my apologies to the package maintainer!
