I get a error when ever I want to emerge an game.

bash-2.05b# emerge ut2004-demo
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) games-fps/ut2004-demo-3120-r1 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) ut2004-lnx-demo-3120.run.bz2
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) ut2004-demo-lnx-tts-pingpatch.tar.bz2
 * Adding user 'games-ded' to your system ...
 *  - Userid: 36

 *  - Home: /usr/games
 * You must add games to the system first

!!! ERROR: games-fps/ut2004-demo-3120-r1 failed.
!!! Function enewuser, Line 575, Exitcode 0
!!! games is not a valid GID

Both the user games and group games exist.

There seems to be a few of us with this problem, there is another thread with possible solutions (none have worked for me yet) that you might want to check out.
