From: Vincent Legoll
Subject: [bug#40601] [PATCH 08/28] guix-install.sh: Use getent for both user & group presence checking.
Date: Sun, 17 May 2020 19:17:05 +0200

* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_create_build_user): Use getent instead of id to check
presence of users, use bare getent call with output redirection for group check.
