[Bug 468922] Re: users-admin does not change shell
It seems that bug 463353 is more complex than that, so I'm going to make it separate. Please apply the attached patch using sudo patch /usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/Users/Users.pm < [PATH TO FILE] and report if that fixes the issue for you. Thanks! ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 463353 [users-admin] Modifying user password has no effect ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Attachment added: "fix-modifying-users.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34940644/fix-modifying-users.patch -- users-admin does not change shell https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468922 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 468922] Re: users-admin does not change shell
The patch works for me, thanks! There's still a slight problem. The drop-down box with the available shells only shows '/bin/bash' though the file /etc/shells correctly lists all the shells. Seems like the file /usr/share/system-tools- backends-2.0/scripts/Users/Shells.pm should grab the shells from /etc/shells but that's not happening. But you can now change the shells with the gui at least. -- users-admin does not change shell https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468922 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
