In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B.

This is bad because gnome-shell is one of those users which crashes. [ QA ] Configure a user for automatic login in gnome-shell. Restart accounts-daemon.service (sudo systemctl restart accounts- daemon.service) a few times, leaving several seconds between each attempt. See that it crashes if you don't have this SRU, and doesn't if you do have it. --- Test that fast user switching still works properly. --- Take a look at the error reports listed below and hopefully see them not occurring (barring the usual noise) with the SRU. [ Regression potential ] We think this is safe - it tells clients that the daemon is away when it quits, and is back when it comes back. They should get appropriate signals to indicate this. Nevertheless, these signals are sent when they weren't before now, so that could cause problems. Watch out for errors creeping up with this SRU. We wondered upstream whether some more protections might be needed. I'm thinking that those should be *additional* safety rails around this fix, but it could actually be that more is needed and this fix isn't complete.
