Sorry, I should have made clear I was speaking from an upstream (GNOME) point of view. I've not said Ubuntu wouldn't fix the problem (even if I know they won't). Ubuntu ships a version of users-admin that's more than a year old, so even if I fixed things upstream you wouldn't notice. My advice (to Ubuntu) is that they move to the new GNOME control center users applet.
As for the specific problem of running as root, AFAIK any newly installed system comes with a non-root admin account. And something I *did* fix in users-admin when it was still developed is that it will not allow you to remove the last admin account. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/685215 Title: users-admin hangs immediately when run as root To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/685215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
