Bug Description
Currently when installing Ubuntu , the default admin belongs to several essential groups :
adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin lxd sambashare
But when adding a user from GCC , the new admin user will only belong to :
sudo
This leads that the second admin cannot add printers and so on...
This is observed on a clean 20.04.3 install
