Title:
  User not shown if secondary account with same uid exists

Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  lightdm hides users where a second user exists with the same userid
  (but different name and login shell), even if the second user has an
  invalid shell (/bin/false).

  Such a situation typically happens if you create a secondary user for
  sftp login etc. with your uid so he can access your files through
  sftp.

  For gdm this works fine.

  Also, there is no "Other user" option in lightdm to manually
  workaround this issue.

  I was locked out of my system after an upgrade to 12.4
