Bug ID: 373558
Summary: Allowed User Names are Limited
Product: user-manager
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcontrol module
Assignee: j...@jriddell.org
Reporter: 3ndymio...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
In trying out KDE again & trying to change my user avatar, I discovered that
this new User Manager imposes a new restriction on the system. Specifically,
it's this:
"The user name must start with a letter."
I guess I'm probably the only person that would run into this. : ( I use my
screen name on my computer as well. The older versions of KDE (& Fedora) never
had an issue with this.
I realize that I can still use "kcmshell4 useraccount" to change the avatar,
but that method is already long deprecated. I don't want to end up getting
locked out. I think that whatever /etc/passwd can understand should be
acceptable to User Manager as well.
May I request that this new restriction be lifted??? I'll like, love you guys
forever, or something. ^_^
