I can reproduce this on Ubuntu MATE 14.04.1 (gnome-system-tools
3.0.0-3ubuntu4) and Ubuntu MATE 14.10 (3.0.0-3ubuntu5). Specifically,
the entire program doesn't hang (nor is there any CPU runaway), the
"Change User Password" dialog itself becomes unresponsive and can be
closed, and the password does not change.
I get less terminal output than @intherye when I run (not getting any
output when closing the window):
$ users-admin
(users-admin:2402): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error
communicating asynchronously with the backends: Launch helper exited
with unknown return code 255
The same happens when I run users-admin over ssh from linux but,
interestingly, NOT when I run over ssh from OS X: same terminal output,
and the UI isn't decorated (using OpenSSH_6.7p1, OpenSSL 1.0.1j 15 Oct
2014 for macports and XQuartz 2.7.8_beta1 on OS X 10.10.1).
** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu)
