Robert, if I found the correct sources, then I Ithink something went very wrong with your patch for trusty:
I found sources for version 0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1 here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+queue?queue_state=1 , namely: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/179519600/accountsservice_0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1.dsc http://launchpadlibrarian.net/179519599/accountsservice_0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1.debian.tar.xz http://launchpadlibrarian.net/179519598/accountsservice_0.6.35.orig.tar.gz and the diff: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/179519604/accountsservice_0.6.35-0ubuntu7_0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1.diff.gz As one can already guess from the diff, this is not only the patch mentioned above, but quite a lot of aclocal/m4 files were simply removed from the sources. This leads to build errors as you can see from the attached log excerpt from a pbuilder run. The old version accountsservice_0.6.35-0ubuntu7 compiles without any problems, but the new one just doesn't. compile at all. Please correct this. ** Attachment added: "accountsservice_0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1 compile error log from pbuilder run" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1290785/+attachment/4149529/+files/accountsservice-0.6.35-0ubuntu7.1_pbuilder-error.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to accountsservice in Ubuntu.

This was not required in 12.04 LTS. In 12.04 LTS users were only hidden if they had UID < UID_MIN. In 13.10 this was changed to UID < UID_MIN or UID > UID_MAX. [Test Case] 1. Create a user with a UID > UID_MAX: $ adduser --uid 60001 big-uid 2. Restart system Expected result: "big-uid" is shown in the greeter. Once logged in "big-uid" is shown in system settings. Observed result: "big-uid" is not shown in the greeter (14.04 LTS, 14.10) "big-uid" is not shown in system settings (13.10, 14.04LTS, 14.10) [Regression Potential] This could cause users that were previously hidden to be shown. This seems unlikely to be a problem as all system created user accounts are less than UID_MIN and there doesn't seem be a convention to use accounts > UID_MAX for this case.
