Public bug reported:

i am running ubuntu hardy  64bit and i have this bug now:
i wanted to add a new user.
under "system>administration>users and groups" the add-user button is inactive 
(gray).
i also cannot change settings of my own account, as if i am some user, but i am 
THE user..
everything is grayed out. so i could not, by any means add a new user, nor 
change my own settings.
when launching this application through xterm 
$ sudo users-admin
i get following message:
** (users-admin:15450): CRITICAL **: Unable to lookup session information for 
process '15450'

i was able to create a new user by doing 
$ sudo adduser <username> though.. 
i installed this system fresh one week ago and i did, as far as i can remember, 
nothing weird.
is there any solution?
