After using a series of apt-get upgrade and apt-get install in order to avoid using dist-upgrade, I was able to perform all of the installs/removals/upgrades without causing the problem with user authentication.
Very similar reports are starting to show up on AskUbuntu. It seems that doing the dist-upgrade or partial upgrade through the GUI is somehow causing the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1302840 Title: Upgrade in 14.04 causes admin user to not be recognized To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1302840/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
