Hi Jememy. Nice work on the patches! I've been working with the AccountsService upstream and I'd like to work out how we can get these patches in.
I think we can make this work with a couple of changes: - Instead of making the CreateUserEncrypt() method you could make a new account type ACCOUNT_TYPE_ENCRYPTED (src/user.h). Since upstream can't currently support this though 'useradd' it should then fail the call when this account type is encrypted. - We then can carry the change in Debian/Ubuntu by modifying debian/patches/0002-create-and-manage-groups-like-on-a-debian-system.patch (I'm working on merging in 0006-adduser_instead_of_useradd.patch which should be in the same patch). Please open a bug on bugzilla.freedesktop.org with the patch and I will help review there. I'm also working on how we can get our adduser changes upstream so we don't have to carry this patch either (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73838) I've pinged upstream but I think everyone is on break now (and I will be for the next two weeks too) but will pick this up when I'm back. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #73838 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73838 -- 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.
