Description

During installation of rudder-webapp on SuSE, the postinst script will fail as the group 'rudder' can't be added. The reason is that addgroup does not exist and usermod does not have option "-a":

"addgroup --system" equivalent is "groupadd --system" (generic)
"usermod -a -G" equivalent is "usermod -A" (specific to SuSE)

The same problem exist for "delgroup" which does not exist on SuSE.
"delgroup" equivalent is "groupdel" (generic)
