You forget about users or thirdparty software which is still using nobody for whatever reason. IMO it makes no sense that openSUSE is the only existing Linux distro which does not provide "nobody/nogroup
"nogroup" is a special SUSE hack not existing on most other Linux distributions. It was an ugly workaround over 18 years ago for a typo in /etc/group.
Else: why do you think that we do not provide "nobody"? It's still there and installed by default, at least if you use patterns and don't create your own, minimal system somehow else.
We will get bug reports for sure if we remove nobody. It doesn't hurt to keep it as it.
Nobody ever spoke about removing nobody.
BTW "bin" and "daemon" are also missing.
No, they are there, too: Requires: system-group-hardware Recommends: system-group-trusted Recommends: system-group-wheel Recommends: system-user-bin Recommends: system-user-daemon Requires: system-user-nobody
Please, first check the code and complain only afterwards.
Recommends are not installed by default in build environement.
