Package: mongodb-server
Version: 1:2.4.10-5
Severity: minor

This Problem results in a restart loop in combination with this puppet module:

https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-mongodb

The Puppet module checks, and fixes permissions in /var/lib/mongodb.
Because the puppet module detects changes, the mongodb process is reloaded.
This resoults in a journal-file to be recreated with mongodb:nogroup.
At the next Puppet run the cycle starts again.

I realise that my problem is very Puppet specific, however I think mongodb should
realy use the mongodb group.
