John: Your problem is not really the same as this one, at least your bug is identified, and hopefully solved in Karmic. You must have an empty homedir or password field in /etc/passwd, which is leading to trouble when trying to commit (see bug 316667). And the problem with the user being shown while it's not created should be fixed too.
BTW, thanks for trying some debugging - but the tool is not hanging, it's just not used, likely because the procedure I described only works in Karmic. You could have used 'sudo killall perl; sudo killall /usr/bin/perl' before using the command (but now it's not required, I already have the information I need). -- users-admin doesn't create home folder for new user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27938 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
