We discussed that with serveral people and Colin Watson and some others
suggested still to use adduser on Debian,Ubuntu system, there is a
reason why Debian recommends in the useradd manpage to use this one, it
will do extra checking and has better integration with the distribution

OK, I'll go ahead patching the sources.

Thanks, the current practical issue is the sh one but using adduser will
probably avoid other similar integration issues later on

Well, accepted in Debian.
Could anyone have a look and possibly sync it from unstable?

Sebastien,
I'm working on the new upstream release of accountsservice (I think I'll be
able to upload the new package to unstable tomorrow), you can see the progress
here:

If customizing the login shell is the point, I think
Thanks for the reply
1. Group management and groups membership
That's a bug, a new added user should be part of the standard needed
groups, we need to build a list of those (using what the old tools was
doing would be a start) and change the standard and admin profiles to
match what is needed
Also, the example of using groups to control device access is pretty
much obsolete now, as this is mostly done using ACL's with udev-
acl/consolekit, rather than using unix groups - I don't even think the
fax group is used anymore (there is no udev rule which sets device nodes
to that group name)

ok, the issues are mostly in accountsservice, one fix to the default
shell issue would be to switch adduser instead of useradd (the useradd
manpage itself recommends to use adduser on Debian). Alessio, I noticed
that you are subscribed to launchpad bugs, is that something you want to
do in Debian?
the default ubiquity created users is added to those groups username
adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare, the admin profile
should probably match those

Please don't put users into dialout, cdrom, and plugdev, these
groups are really obsolete. ubiquity should stop using these groups,
too.

Also, accountsservice is in collab-maint, and as the useradd-adduser
change is equally important for Debian, we can just do the change
ourselves.

Sebastien,
yes, I intend to properly fix this as soon as possible.
A bug in BTS would be appreciated though.
Please note I'm in a sort of vacancy-mode these days, I'll be back in
action Monday.

Could you describe in which situation a normal user would need those?
The dialog has a support for profiles, i.e an user can be a normal user
or an admin one, those profiles should handle most of the needs,
especially if the sysadmin can add custom profiles. Is there a real need
to modify the user
1. Group management and groups membership
A newly created user is only member of its own group
$ id test02
uid=1003(test02) gid=1003(test02) groups=1003(test02)
John, a not so powerful adminof his home sytem, wants to access his
modem or fax for example? Or any other devices based on group
