Description Gleb Litvjak 2005-03-31 05:09:02 UTC
Kuser 3.4.0 damages a user account when saving - sets its UID to 0, home dir to an empty string and so on, which makes user profile unusable (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100443).

Today a fix has been released (it works fine for me). The patch isn't in CVS yet, but adding it to ebuilds would make sense since kuser is almost of no use without it.

Reproducible: Always

I applied the patch from the kde bug in kdeadmin-3.4.0-r1/kuser-3.4.0-r1. Thanks.
