Title:
User Accounts reports wrong "Automatic Login" status when upgading
from 12.04
Status in “accountsservice” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “accountsservice” source package in Quantal:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
A lightdm user in Ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04 will always see automatic login as
turned off, even when it is currently enabled for that user. This does not
affect the functioning of autologin itself, just whether it appears enabled or
not. This may lead to user confusion, and is a regression from 12.04.
[Reproduction steps]
0) Be on Ubuntu 12.10
1) Go to System Settings -> Users
2) Unlock the pane
3) Toggle "Automatic login" on for a given user
4) Reboot
5) Go back to System Settings -> Users
6) Note the value of "Automatic login"
[Regression Potential]
Low. Only affects a code path that decides whether to check the gdm value or
the lightdm value for autologin. Previously, a logic bug meant that we always
checked the gdm value.
