Why agent requires adm group on deb package?
What's wrong?
seeing https://github.com/grafana/agent/issues/524 and the fix https://github.com/grafana/agent/issues/737
files moved around, new location at https://github.com/rfratto/agent/blob/main/packaging/grafana-agent/deb/control/postinst#L23 still without explanation
instead of simply adding the user to the journald reader permission group systemd-journal
, it is also added to adm
group with no further explanation why.
adm
is usually not required to read logs and can act on a lot more in regular setups.
Steps to reproduce
- install
- remove user from group
- nothing bad happens as far as i can tell.
