In general, we *will* overwrite whatever you change in the meantime when running userconfig. The data is read on startup of userconfig, intermittent changes will be disregarded (not only changing the password).
Please accept that your usecase is just not supported. And you are _definitely_ using two applications for the same purpose, namely userconfig and passwd. Reopening the bug also will not suddenly make your usecase more valid. I've now added a call to clear the password field, so it shouldn't be saved twice. Please note, that your usecase is still _not_supported_. If the password would be set to empty, however, that would be a valid bug (it works fine for me). ** Changed in: kde-guidance (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => sebas Status: Unconfirmed => Fix Committed -- password variable not cleared well, can results in password overwritten https://launchpad.net/bugs/78374 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
