[Bug 370737] Re: Creating username = exising group is refused as user exists
That's fixed in Lucid. Since 2.29.92 we automatically add the user to the group named after its login if it already exists. That's not really optimal since it may not be what you want, though - that will be improved in the next cycle. ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- Creating username = exising group is refused as user exists https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370737 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Since this report have a long time without activity, please could you check (if is possible) in latest version included in Ubuntu Karmic if this issue is still affecting you?

[Bug 370737] Re: Creating username = exising group is refused as user exists
Yes, that looks like that, Milan. If one creates a user, deletes it, and tries to create it again in the same "session" there is a problem. Deleting the group of that user allows the creation of the user again. Probably the configuration files are only being updated on closing the gui assistant. If one creates the user, deletes it and leaves the assistant. Then opens the assistant again and tries to create the user, it works (whenever the home directory is deleted or changed). -- Creating username = exising group is refused as user exists https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370737 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 370737] Re: Creating username = exising group is refused as user exists
The error message is a little more explicit now. Seems to me that the real bug is that the user group is actually removed, but the configuration is not updated accordingly. Need to investigate this a little more. -- Creating username = exising group is refused as user exists https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370737 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
