If that aids debugging, command "LANG=C sudo adduser test28" fails with:
Adding user `test28' ... Adding new group `test28' (1004) ... Adding new user `test28' (1001) with group `test28' ... useradd: cannot lock /etc/passwd; try again later. adduser: `/usr/sbin/useradd -d /home/test28 -g test28 -s /bin/bash -u 1001 test28' returned error code 1. Exiting. So this is probably the same issue as bug #432964, but I still think gnome shouldn't show the new user in the GUI but instead show an error message. -- cannot add user account using gnome-users settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/418690 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
