This problem also makes it impossible to add a new user and then login as that user. If the newuser is created in terminal then: $ sudo adduser testing [sudo] password for colinl: Adding user `testing' ... Adding new group `testing' (1005) ... Adding new user `testing' (1005) with group `testing' ... Creating home directory `/home/testing' ... Copying files from `/etc/skel' ... passwd: System error passwd: password unchanged Try again? [y/N]
If the user is added using System, Users and Groups then the add appears to be ok but attempted login gives authorization failure. The workaround given above fixes both.
