That's not a workaround, that's the normal procedure. Why would you use 'passwd -e' in the first place, if you want ot change your own password? The only bug I can see here is that PolicyKit should allow users to authenticate even if their password is marked for expiration until they log change it

In 2.29.2 we let adduser create the home directory from the login name. Home dir can only be changed for existing users, this is a design decision. So this bug can't happen now, since it would mean that a user with the same login already exists, which we don't allow. I've just tested it with addus
