AmenophisIII: Actually, I can't find how the problem you describe can
appear, since the tool should always choose a free UID by default. The
only explanation I can find is that you have an user with ID 6 and
another with ID 60001. Could you open a separate report for that?
Thanks!

I've just fixed this problem upstream by checking that an UID free
before creating the user. If that's not the case, a dialog is shown.
This will sadly not be available in GNOME 2.28 because this would imply
modifying strings, and that's too late for that.

No, this is completely different from those bugs-- fixing bug 124993
just gives the admin the opportunity to work around this bug, by
manually checking all the existing uid's. That shouldn't be necessary,
because a smart system should warn the admin automatically.

correction: best match is bug 124993. Comments, anyone?

this bug looks like the same as bug 141067, only applied to users. I
suggest setting it as a duplicate of 141067 (more explicit on the causes
of this behaviour).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been

I just encountered this same issue on a new Feisty (7.04) install when I
attempted to create a user name of "staff". As is default in Ubuntu,

The group "staff" is a Ubuntu default with a GID of 50 so it couldn't be

Similar situation occurs when an user is deleted and re-added.
Suppose you add a user "newuser" using the System -> Administration -> Users

Then you decide to remove the user, and it is successfully removed.
Then, if you add user "newuser" again, the
