Hi,
I just noticed that if I create a user from Gnome/Settings/Users they will
have their shell set to /usr/sbin/nologin. The user can login but cannot
start a terminal. This occurs in a clean sid VM but does not occur in a
clean Debian 11 VM.
It seems the UI calls accounts-daemon over dbus and that then runs
adduser --quiet --disabled-login --gecos username username
in both cases.
Is this a separate bug that should be reported against some package?
Oh and btw, the man page in 3.130 seems to have some syntax issue since
groff markup is shown to the user:
$ man adduser | grep fP
duse's scope. --disabled-login will additional set the
shell to /usr/sbin/nologin/fP. Valid
