I understand that modifying groups requires a logout (although I've been hacking UNIX for 20+ years and I still don't really understand why that's true). But it's monumentally sucky to have to log out, even if there's some dialog that tells you you need to do it.
I don't see why nautilus-share cannot be included as part of the base distribution so that this is not necessary. But, if it indeed cannot be, then maybe we should change the base package to add the sambashare group, even though it's not used by any packages until nautilus-share is installed. User accounts can be added to that group as they would be other groups, when the user account is created. This would fix the need to log out/in due to group updates. -- "easy" file sharing not notifying about logout/login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212098 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
