[Spacewalk-list] User "root" is not added to the defaults group list (root, bin, sys, daemon, adm, disk and wheel)

Yes there may be an issue in anaconda but I just checked another RHEL 6.3
which was not provisioned using spacewalk. It shows that root is in all
default groups

[root at mail ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago)
[root at mail ~]# groups root
root : root bin daemon sys adm disk wheel

Thanks and Regards
Indrajith
