Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

I'm on a fresh Ubuntu 9.10 install with gnome-system-tools version
2.28.1-0ubuntu2.

When using the gui for changing a users shell the changes will not be
saved.

Steps to reproduce (or what I did):

1. System->Administration->Users and Groups
2. Click the key with the text "Click to make changes"
3. Select a user and click 'Preferences'
4. In the 'Advanced'-tab change the shell to '/usr/bin/zsh'
5. Press 'OK', log out and log back in.

Expected result:
When opening a terminal the $SHELL would be 'zsh'

Actual results:
The $SHELL was bash. The changes had not been saved.

You can also just press 'OK', and press 'Close' in the master window.
When you edit the user again, the shell setting have changed.

In Jaunty I think this worked correctly.
