Maybe /etc/passwd is broken on that host.

Reproducible via martchus@openqa:~> sudo salt -C 'G@nodename:backup-vm' -l error --state-output=changes state.apply:

martchus@backup-vm:~> sudo tail -f /var/log/salt/minion

martchus@backup-vm:~> sudo pwck -r prints the same list of problems as on other hosts.


Fixed by removing a trailing +::: in /etc/group:

Summary for backup.qa.suse.de

Total states run:     243
Total run time:    28.253 s

It is not the first time I've seen /etc/group broken like this on one of our machines. I'll nevertheless resolve this ticket because I wouldn't know how to find out why /etc/group gets broken. Maybe it is a bug in salt or a package script, though.
