zsys is handling this (adduser will try to execute it and creates a dataset, and if it can't, it fallbacks to traditional directory creation.
zsys isn't installed by default on 19.10 but should be on 20.04 LTS, so I encourage you to install and test it! Thanks :) I'll have to mark the bug as invalid. If you installed zsys and you still see this behavior, do not hesitate to ping us back! ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849512 Title: Creating a new user on top of ZFS filesystem does not create a new dataset for his home directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1849512/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
