This is a little bit obscure but you basically didn't follow the generic 
instructions on updating your system. You can get away without doing 
the 
mergemaster -p
most of the time but when you see a message about a missing user or 
group, you have to add them to the appropriate file and carefully 
running mergemaster -p will let you fix the problem.
