Description Karan Pratap Singh 2011-07-15 17:02:35 UTC
Created attachment 61896 [details]
The Duplicate Account can be seen in this screenshot!

Version:           git-latest (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

When I create an account using the add account wizard in accounts-kcm, and if I am entering the same details as an existing account, then the accounts-kcm creates the duplicate account, which appears as disconnected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just add a new account and enter the same username and password as an existing account.

Actual Results:  
accounts-kcm creates a duplicate account blindly.

Expected Results:  
accounts-kcm should at least check if an account with the same details is already present in the accounts list or not. If an account is already present, then accounts-kcm should not let a duplicate one to be added.

I will be very grateful if this bug is solved soon...KDE Plasma Educational Desktop's authorization feature may depend on it!
