Title: Switch user feature has disappeared from GNOME Shell since upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 Status in accountsservice: Unknown Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Fix Committed Status in accountsservice package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in accountsservice source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in accountsservice package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: Impact ====== Ubuntu 16.04's accountsservice was built without systemd support because systemd dropped libsystemd-login because that functionality was merged into libsystemd. At a minimum, this broke GNOME Shell's "Switch User" feature. Test Case ========= 1. From Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.1, install the updated accountsservice packages. 2. Add a user if necessary to ensure you have at least 2 user accounts configured. 3. Reload gnome-shell. You can do this with Alt+F2 and entering the lower case letter r. Or you can log out of all user accounts and log back in. 4. Click the system status area in the top right of GNOME Shell. 5. Click your user name. "Switch User" should appear in the list. Regression Potential ==================== None. The one-line change to accountsservice's configure check was made in Debian's accountsservice 0.6.40-3 a year ago(!). The patch is upstreamed and was included in accountsservice 0.6.42 released in June.
