martchus@backup-vm:~> sudo pwck -r prints the same list of problems as on other hosts.
Fixed by removing a trailing +::: in /etc/group:

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.
