This isn't really a bug in Launchpad or SSO. While we'll hopefully eventually add facilities to manage OpenID identifier associations, the multiple associations are only a problem when the consumer is buggy! Any changes to Launchpad would simply serve to work around the bugs in the consumers. The only consumers I know to be buggy in this respect are Summit and OpenStack's gerrit -- they're trying to do the mapping the wrong way.
Steve, you've somehow created four separate SSO accounts, all associated with your Launchpad account. If you file a support request at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion we can get some of them cleaned up to work around the Summit incompatibility. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bengali Manual, which is subscribed to LoCo Team Portal. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881019 Title: Lp login is broken after account merge Status in Canonical SSO provider: Confirmed Status in Launchpad itself: Triaged Status in LoCo Team Portal: Confirmed Status in OpenStack Core Infrastructure: Confirmed Status in Summit - The UDS Scheduler: Confirmed Bug description: This looks like bug 644824 (reopned?), though may also be bug 676964. In either case, openid are not matched correctly when the user logins in through SSO. Since both of these bugs were reported, the openididentifier table was created to store multiple ids for a user. Merge may not be dealing with the table correctly. There have also been many cases where the email address table (used to lookup Persons) has a different account from the account in the person table. This should be an impossibility. Maybe there should be a constraint, or column should be dropped from person, (or less likely emailaddress). Notes from gmb, 2011-11-24: - Dropping account from Person is prohibitively complex (see comments). - Running the following query: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Person, EmailAddress WHERE EmailAddress.person = Person.id AND EmailAddress.account <> Person.account; tells us that there are currently two Persons in the production DB whose Person.account and EmailAddress.account don't match. -- From the original question: One of our guys just recently merged two launchpad acounts into the account nati-ueno. The merge didn't go all the way through - there are times when the old openid gets referenced. https://login.launchpad.net/+id/BBze6nw https://login.launchpad.net/+id/X6dGn6P X6dGn6P is the correct one.
