       groupdel - delete a group

STRESZCZENIE

       groupdel [options] GROUP

OPIS

       The groupdel command modifies the system account files, deleting all entries that refer to GROUP. The
       named group must exist.

OPCJE

       The options which apply to the groupdel command are:

       -f, --force
           This option forces the removal of the group, even if there's some user having the group as the
           primary one.

       -h, --help
           Wyświetlenie komunikatu pomocy i zakończenie działania.

       -R, --root CHROOT_DIR
           Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the CHROOT_DIR
           directory. Only absolute paths are supported.

       -P, --prefix PREFIX_DIR
           Apply changes in the PREFIX_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the PREFIX_DIR
           directory. This option does not chroot and is intended for preparing a cross-compilation target. Some
           limitations: NIS and LDAP users/groups are not verified. PAM authentication is using the host files.
           No SELINUX support.

OSTRZEŻENIA

       You may not remove the primary group of any existing user. You must remove the user before you remove the
       group.

       You should manually check all file systems to ensure that no files remain owned by this group.
