The user is there, though, because when I logout and arrive at the login manager, the user is listed. The password ain’t working though. When I go back to settings/user manager, the user is not there. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to systemsettings --> usermanager --> add user 2. No new user is visible 3. Actual Results: No user visible in the user manager, and the user picture of me is changed into the picture of the new user, but not in the right scale (one sees part of image). the image is own image. Expected Results: New user visible in the user manager. When I want to add the same user through Konsole --> useradd <username>, it says user exists. When I make user password in console, log out, click the new user in the login screen (it was here before) I can now log in. When I log out the new user, and log into my account again, the new user is visible in the usermanager. OS: Linuxmint Qiana 17 KDE
I have the same problem (Linux Mint 17.1 KDE) with a little variation. I don't have the issue about a changed user picture. The workaround with setting the password in the terminal, log in into new user account etc. does not make the new user visible in the user manager of the original user account. However, both users are visible in the user manager in the new user account.
Starting with Plasma 5.4 kcm_useraccount has been deprecated in favor of user-manager (you can run with kcmshell5 user_manager). This means that unfortunately we did not get to fix your bug, sorry about that. We encourage you to try user-manager and report any bug or improvement you may find. Sorry again for not fixing your bug and thanks for caring about KDE :)
I have the same problem with fedora installing over the network iso, plasma 5.20.3.
