Description Bart Ribbers 2019-09-05 12:09:03 UTC 
SUMMARY
When opening "kcmshell5 user_manager", no existing users are shown. Nothing happens when pressing the  + button to add a new user.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Get a Musl system like Gentoo or Alpine Linux
2. Run "kcmshell5 user_manager"

OBSERVED RESULT

No existing users aren't shown and new ones can't be added as nothing happens when pressing the + button. Nothing appears in the CLI either.

EXPECTED RESULT

Existing users to be shown and possible to be modified, and the possibility to add a new user or remove one.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux 4.19.69
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.61.0
Qt Version: 5.12.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This system (Alpine Linux) uses Musl so this issue is probably because of that.

Do you have AccountsService (https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/AccountsService/) installed?

Status fix.
Comment 3 Bart Ribbers 2021-01-21 09:05:59 UTC 
I'm... Embarrassed to say I did not and installing it fixed the issue... The joys of packaging I guess, I never saw anywhere this was needed.

Thanks for the solution!
