Yes -- that is what how I understood the situation. The brltty

may not be noticed for a while since most installs will be upgrades rather than fresh
installs).
I don't known anything about Debian. But I did check the rpm's from F27 and the
rpm's from
brltty.com.
The rpm's from
britty.com do not contain any scripts.
The rpm's from Fedora do contain scripts and the script which creates the group is
within
the brlapi rpm and the group is created in the "normal" way. I don't know
what you mean
by "creating groups with systemd".
The PREIN script contains
getent group brlapi >/dev/null || groupadd -r brlapi >/dev/null
Additionally F34 will have brltty-6.3-1.fc34 which includes brlapi-0.8.2-1.fc34 and that
contains
the same PREIN script.
