Buildroot fails with: mkusers: user already exists with group 'nogroup'

mkusers: user already exists with group 'nogroup'
fs/tar/tar.mk:13: recipe for target '/home/user/buildroot/output/images/rootfs.tar' failed
make: *** [/home/user/buildroot/output/images/rootfs.tar] Error 1


This happens after make clean and make.
Any ideas?

Cheers,
CJ

 Can you post your defconfig? Sounds like two competing USERS definitions with
different group, but then it's surprising that the autobuilders didn't detect it...
