Description Sayak Banerjee 2008-11-01 17:42:48 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages



Binary package hint: kdeadmin

To reproduce:
Launch kuser. Now create some users. For example, I created 4 users test1 to test 4.
Now select all the 4 users by Ctrl+Clicking on each.
Now press the Delete user button. The delete operation will be performed on only one of the users, which is test4 in my case. After test4 is removed, we are left with test1 to test3 users left back and selected. We can click on Delete again to remove test3 and so on.

This bothers me as I often have to set up many users or remove a chunk of them. Often when the number of users are removed serially, ie, in my case, I often remove user1 to user80 together, which becomes tiring due to this bug.
Comment 1 Szombathelyi György 2008-11-02 14:29:41 UTC 
User deleting is not implemented for multiple users at one time.
The other thing which is not implemented: editing multiple selected groups (but this is not so useful I think...)

This is no more reproducible on KDE4: when you click on an entry, the user details dialog is opened...

kuser no longer exists as a separate thing and hasn't for several years; it's relevant functionality now exists as the Users page in System Settings. If you experience an issue with that page, or want to request a new feature for it, feel free to open a new bugzilla ticket about the matter at https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=systemsettings&component=kcm_users.

Thanks folks!
