Bug ID: 409799
Summary: Adding user without providing account name fails
silently
Product: user-manager
Version: 5.16.3
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcontrol module
Assignee: j...@jriddell.org
Reporter: girard.nico...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
On Kubuntu 19.04, using user-manager 5.16.3-0ubuntu1~ubuntu19.04~ppa1 package
from http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu, trying to add a new
user via KDE configuration manager without providing an account name fails
silently.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. LANG=C kcmshell5 user_manager
2. Click "New user"
3. Leave the first (anonymous btw) field empty
4. Fill in "Real name" field with e.g. "tester"
5. Provide a password
6. Click OK
7. Enter password
OBSERVED RESULT
The window closes without any warning or error message.
Return code ($?) is 0.
No user is created (grep tester /etc/group returns nothing)
EXPECTED RESULT
At some point in the described sequence, the user should be warned that an
account name is missing, the more so as the field for the account name is
anonymous and doesn't have any tooltip asssociated.
The return code shouldn't be 0.
