So thanks for providing the details now. This bug was not Triaged, it was merely Confirmed. Sure, you had in mind the details, but nobody else did. So, what was not mentioned in the report or the comments is: changing your password does not allow you to authenticate via sudo.
You're really not helping the reporter nor Xubuntu in general by preventing anybody to mark bugs as Incomplete. How do you know it's a problem in users-admin? Isn't that a sudo or PAM issue? Is it happening because the system-tools-backends use usermod to set the password instead of passwd? Finding the right package is the first step, else nobody will notice the report. And that's absolutely unrelated to GNOME/Xfce flamewars. BTW I'm not triaging bugs ATM, I'm fixing them, which requires information to write patches. If you realized the debugging needed, I could fix it *even if* I'm supposedly working in upstream GNOME and despising Xfce people. -- Changing your password does not take effect before session is restarted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315002 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
