Leander,
  Thanks for the bug report. Sorry for the regression.
I suspect that you can work around the issue by just putting your user into a group. Ie, you add 2 groups, but your user is not in either one of them.

We'll get this fixed.

Leander,
 I'd appreciate you giving the linked branch a test if you're up for it.
 I dont have time at the moment and probably wont until next week.

You can either build a deb with:
 ./packages/bddeb

or just apply the diff (copy in the new cloudinit/distros/__init__.py

Thanks.

I've applied the diff.
The defined users are now being created, but only when their primary group is created first using the groups statement.
The users are also correctly added to the specified additionals groups.

I've pasted my userdata below:

#cloud-config

groups:
  - ansible
  - sysop

users:
  - name: sysop
    gecos: "System Operator"
    primary-group: sysop
    groups: "sudo,adm"
    shell: /bin/bash
    lock-passwd: false
    passwd: <redacted>

Please ignore my last comment (#4).

When specifying an explicit primary-group it should of course already exist, before useradd can create the user.
When removing the primary-group statement from the user definition the user is created just fine (including it's primary group with the same name as the user).

For me this has fixed the issue I've reported.
