Hi,

i cannot reproduce this. I just upgraded another server from 1.8.4.2 to 
1.8.4.3 and after the upgrade i still have asterisk in the dahdi group:

flo at tb:~ 37 > id asterisk
uid=931(asterisk) gid=931(asterisk) groups=931(asterisk),843(dahdi)
flo at tb:~ 38 > grep dahdi /etc/group
dahdi:*:843:asterisk

Can you still reproduce this when upgrading to 1.8.4.3?

Cheers,
Florian
