Unable to create user with --noprivate option
$ ipa user-add jjsmith --first=JJ --last=Smith --noprivate ipa: ERROR: Default group for new users is not POSIX $ ipa config-show ...

Closing as invalid.
Sorry for text format before:
Fixed description.
This behaves as designed. ipausers group is not posix -> does not have GID (unless you modify this group and make it posix).
ipausers
This means, that if you add a user and do not create have the default user group posix, user-add has no means of making up user GID. This leaves you with 2 options:
Specify user GID manually:
User login: fbar First name: Foo Last name: Bar Full name: Foo Bar Display name: Foo Bar Initials: FB Home directory: /home/fbar GECOS field: Foo Bar Login shell: /bin/sh Kerberos principal: fbar@EXAMPLE.COM Email address: fbar@example.com UID: 1498600005 GID: 10000 Password: False Kerberos keys available: False
