Yesterday I tried to install VLC non-free from Gnome Software and were
asked to login to Ubuntu One, which do not work as it keeps saying
Password or email is wrong. Obviously neither email or password are
worng when I'm able to write here, after signed in through Ubuntu One in
web browser - People above agree that this is a bug.

But wouldn't it be an idea to actually inform people of this through
computer magazines or sites like
https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/ were people go for
help setting up Ubuntu after install - so that they don't have to waste
time running around on the net trying to figure out why this happens -
since developers here have known about this since August 25.

It wouldn't take you more than a few minutes posting: "There is a bug in
the Gnome Software, which disables the login to Ubuntu One - we are
working on a solution. Please be patient. We will come out with and
update very soon!"

This kind of thing annoys me, it were one of the reasons I switched to
linux from Win7 after MS came out with their Win10 and tried to force
people to update - I have used and supported/build/repaired computers
for over 25 years. I never liked windows, but had to use it because of
customers.

I just came from Ubuntu forums, where people are asking this question,
but nobody here thinks its a good idea to answer them!

An update there on the progress of a solution would be an idea!
