tsimonq2, I have subscribed ubuntu-release. We have modifications in our PPA that utilize this patch to accountsservice. If the patch to accountsservice is not merged in Ubuntu's version, our version will be overridden when there is another accountsservice release.
Since this is a feature that is desired in Ubuntu, I think it would be best to allow for the patch to accountsservice to be merged in for use by others, regardless of the patches to gnome-control-center or gnome- initial-setup. At the moment, we have a safely forked version of these packages that cannot be overridden. The issue with accountservice, is that it cannot be forked, renamed, and then use a Provides Conflicts Replaces. This leaves us in a dangerous place where we may have to revert our changes to add encrypted home to gnome-control-center and gnome-initial-setup. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to accountsservice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1699216 Title: Encrypted home support Status in accountsservice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-initial-setup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In the CreateUser D-bus call, allow the home directory of the new user to be encrypted.
