There is the staff group in the /etc/groups in Debian. According to the https://wiki.debian.org/SystemGroups the purpose of this group is:

Allows users to add local modifications to the system (/usr/local) without needing root privileges (note that executables in /usr/local/bin are in the PATH variable of any user, and they may "override" the executables in /bin and /usr/bin with the same name). Compare with group "adm", which is more related to monitoring/security.

The is no such group in Centos. And there is no detailed description of system groups of Centos.

This is all that I found (there are only three groups description): https://refspecs.linuxbase.org/LSB_3.0.0/LSB-PDA/LSB-PDA/usernames.html and just a list of groups in the RedHat docs: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/5/html/deployment_guide/s1-users-groups-standard-groups

So, what is the alternative for the staff group in Centos?
