Since so many components are involved a fix/change might have been missed. And since I recently didn't hear anything about this otherwise rather hot bug I was giving focal a try.
It turns out that this was indeed improved. Only the user of pkg:ifmail user fdt name "Fidonet" is still visible. All other formerly affected packages are good in Focal. I can't (without digging through history a lot) say what fixed that but I'll update the bug tasks accordingly. Setting Focal fixed and marking Bionic/Xenial as still affected releases. The backport tasks for those packages are incomplete thou as it is unclear which change in which package fixed it for Focal. Note: This is only speaking for the "default config" of Ubuntu Desktop as in 20.04 we know that certain environments will behave differently (e.g. KDE never was affected). ** Also affects: ifmail (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: libvirt (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ceph (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: lightdm (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: accountsservice (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: netqmail (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: sddm (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ifmail (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: libvirt (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ceph (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: lightdm (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: accountsservice (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: netqmail (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: sddm (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** No longer affects: accountsservice (Ubuntu Xenial) ** No longer affects: accountsservice (Ubuntu Bionic) ** Changed in: ceph (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: ceph (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: ceph (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released ** No longer affects: ifmail (Ubuntu Xenial) ** No longer affects: ifmail (Ubuntu Bionic) ** No longer affects: lightdm (Ubuntu Xenial) ** No longer affects: lightdm (Ubuntu Bionic) ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: netqmail (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: netqmail (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: netqmail (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released ** No longer affects: sddm (Ubuntu Xenial) ** No longer affects: sddm (Ubuntu Bionic) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to accountsservice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857651 Title: Unable to hide users from login screen / user switcher To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/accountsservice/+bug/857651/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
