SUMMARY The way the user avatar is displayed in the User Manager and User Switcher Applet is inconsistent with the lockscreen STEPS TO REPRODUCE trivial OBSERVED RESULT the avatar has a rectangular shape EXPECTED RESULT It should be displayed in a circle SOFTWARE VERSIONS (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.13.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.50.0 Qt Version: 5.11.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I think the new way the lock screen handles this should be prefered.
That's true, it should! Code is here: https://cgit.kde.org/user-manager.git/tree/src/lib/accountmodel.cpp#n145 Shouldn't be too tough for a new contributor who has some familiarity with C++ or Qt.
Would it be possible for me to pick this up?
Absolutely! Let me know if you need a hand. Our documentation is at: - https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development - https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/Phabricator

Our documentation is at: > - https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development > - https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/Phabricator Trying to setup an environment with QtCreator. I hit a segmentation fault when trying to run the compiled version of user-manager.
Sounds like there's an issue with compiled version. :) I can't offer development support in a bug tracker, so please check out the #kde-devel channel on Freenode IRC. Folks there can help you get up and running!

This is fixed in the Plasma 5.20 rewrite. Now at long last, all of the avatars are inside circles!
