It's a little late to fix this for Karmic, it should have been done months ago. For now, best answer is "upgrade to Lucid", since it's a LTS.
The fix wouldn't be very complex. We should close the user settings dialog when user clicks on the "Change password" button. I can post a patch, if a core dev is OK to upload a new package to Karmic. -- [users-admin] Password is reset to old value when it's been changed by running about-me https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/490093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
