By the way, Debian's adduser requires the first character to be a letter. I filed bug 1630417 for that issue. This commit broke string freeze.

Clarifying my comment about GNOME Control Center - *upstream* G-C-C probably should allow uppercase since other distros probably don't have this limitation, but in Ubuntu/Debian it makes sense for G-C-C to only allow lowercase. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1600638 Title: Unity control center chokes on upper case in user name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1600638/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1600638] Re: Unity control center chokes on upper case in user name
POSIX supports upper and lower case letters, however adduser is configured by default in Debian to only allow lower case. It makes sense for Unity Control Center to only allow lower case given it is used in Ubuntu, though GNOME Control Center might still continue to allow mixed case. ** Changed in: unity-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => In Progress ** Changed in: unity-control-center (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Robert Ancell (robert-ancell) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1600638 Title: Unity control center chokes on upper case in user name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control-center/+bug/1600638/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
