KDE Software Compilation 430916 0 NOR RESOLVED Cannot create another user account with KDE System Settings, or edit existing one on Fedora 33 kde spin 2021-01-02 17:32:16 UTC

Description Geraldo Simião 2020-12-28 18:35:55 UTC
Description of problem:
Cannot create another user account through KDE System Settings. Nothing happens after filling out all new user details and clicking on "create" and "Apply".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
plasma-desktop-5.20.4-1.fc33.x86_64
plasma-systemsettings-5.20.4-1.fc33.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open System Settings
2. Click on "Account Details" and "User Manager"
3. Click on "New User"
4. Fill out ALL fields, click on "create" button

Actual results:
New user is not created. It doesn't make a difference if you create user as an admin or not, or if you fill new user password.

Expected results:
It should be possible to create a new user from GUI in KDE Spin.


Additional info:
The actual user (the one we create on system install) doesn't show on this screen to be edited.


My setup:

standard fedora 33 kde spin with traditional ext4 partitions and swap
plasma 5.20.4 
frameworks 5.75.0, 
Qt 5.15.2 
Kernel 5.9.16-200.fc33.x86_64
Plasma on X session
Fresh install on 02/10/2020
Testing repositories enabled

Comment 2 Geraldo Simião 2020-12-28 18:44:12 UTC
With command line tool "useradd" I sucessfully created a new user, but it doesn't show on the user manager window on system settings to be edited too.

@rdieter Suggested that I install the package accountsservice on my system, to fix this problem.
Indeed, that pkg was not installed previously.

This was the package I installed now, and everything works fine:

accountsservice-0.6.55-4.fc33.x86_64

Thanks again Rex Dieter :)

Hello;
