Description

The sysusers.d format (https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/sysusers.d.html) describes the user and group which should exist. This allows admins to introspect which users should exist. In the future it can also make packaging easier.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Adopting_sysusers.d_format describes how Fedora will start to recognize it. Fedora 39 has rpm 4.19 which natively implements the feature.

On Debian there is dh_installsysusers (https://manpages.debian.org/bullseye/debhelper/dh_installsysusers.1.en.html) which has a similar goal.
