Great, I'm closing the bug then. Unsure how the user was created but not
having a login shell defined is a buggy configuration, that's not a bug
in the system (and the initial setup does it job by triggering when no
valid user account is available)

Title:
  Forced login as gnome-initial-setup user, which then crashes.

Status in gnome-initial-setup package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After updating to Ubuntu 19.10, I get automatically logged in as a
  gnome-initial-setup user. Whatever it is doing then crashes (I get a
  crash report). The desktop then hangs.

  Work around:
  1. In grub go to advanced Ubuntu options. Chose the latest kernel in recovery 
mode
  2. Select root shell
  3. apt-get remove gnome-initial-setup
  4. reboot
