Thanks for your report!

It's the accountsservice package which is broken somehow. I downgraded accountsservice to the version used in disco, and then it worked as usual.

When looking at this, I run into bug #1842256, which is kind of related. But fixing accountsservice is prio 1.

This bug was fixed in the package accountsservice - 0.6.55-0ubuntu6

---------------
accountsservice (0.6.55-0ubuntu6) eoan; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/0010-set-language.patch:
    - Call user_locale_validate() separately and not as an argument
      when calling some other function. The latter has worked fine
      previously, but with latest gcc the arguments were not passed
      properly (LP: #1842212).
