Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek fdbbee37d5 man: drop unused <authorgroup> tags from man sources
Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.

Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>nss-systemd</command> is a plug-in module for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality of the
GNU C Library (<command>glibc</command>), providing UNIX user and group name resolution for dynamic users and
groups allocated through the <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> option in systemd unit files. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on
this option.</para>
<para>This module also ensures that the root and nobody users and groups (i.e. the users/groups with the UIDs/GIDs
0 and 65534) remain resolvable at all times, even if they aren't listed in <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> or
<filename>/etc/group</filename>, or if these files are missing.</para>
<para>To activate the NSS module, add <literal>systemd</literal> to the lines starting with
<literal>passwd:</literal> and <literal>group:</literal> in <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename>.</para>
<para>It is recommended to place <literal>systemd</literal> after the <literal>files</literal> or
<literal>compat</literal> entry of the <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> lines so that
<filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and <filename>/etc/group</filename> based mappings take precedence.</para>

<title>Example</title>
<para>Here is an example <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> file that enables
<command>nss-systemd</command> correctly:</para>
<programlisting>passwd: compat mymachines <command>systemd</command>
group: compat mymachines <command>systemd</command>
shadow: compat
hosts: files mymachines resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns myhostname
