Bug Description
Since ubuntu dont uses systemd, we need a systemgroup for users to start wayland/weston without root/sudo
at the moment we neet to
sudo groupadd weston-launch
sudo usermod -a -G weston-launch $USER ##replace $USER with username
##after that we can logout and
weston-launch
So it would be good if the weston package would create this group by itself and add all users to it, if that is possible.
