>>What you expected to happen
Changing my own user profile to not require a password on log in, should
completely remove the existing password..
>>What happened instead
I have changed my own user profile to not require a password and log me in
automatically. What happened is, once I'm logged in, I find my password is not
accepted when I'm trying to install an application or make changes to user
accounts.
This bug is also mentioned in this question of askubuntu:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/128213/admin-password-authenticates-to-
log-in-but-not-to-install-apps-or-change-user-a/
I've proposed there a solution, which worked for me, but I believe that
it is important to report this question as bug to launchpad.
