gdm greeter shows mpd in the user list

[Vsevolod Velichko]

Binary package hint: gdm

After the upgrade to natty alpha, gdm started displaying not only my user account in the user list, but it displays mpd too.
I suppose, that problem can be removed by adding mpd to the greeter/Exclude list.

I've found two files, that probably should be fixed: /etc/gdm/gdm.schemas and /usr/share/gdm/gdm.schemas, while everything would work only after the second is fixed, while the first makes no sense:

thank you for your bug report, could you describe where the mpd group is coming from? the fix seems wrong, only users who are logging in should show in there

[Vsevolod Velichko (torkvemada)]

Sebastien, mpd is coming from mpd package, it's music player daemon (https://launchpad.net/mpd, http://musicpd.org).
Look:
$ cat /etc/passwd|grep mpd
mpd:x:114:29::/var/lib/mpd:/bin/false
 $ cat /etc/group|grep :29:
audio:x:29:torkvemada,pulse,mpd,timidity
And even:
 $ sudo cat /etc/shadow|grep mpd
mpd:*:14253:0:99999:7:::

This user definitely can't login, however it's shown in the gdm list.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

does it show up in the ck-history --frequent log?

[Vsevolod Velichko (torkvemada)]

$ ck-history --frequent
torkvema 7042
gdm 675
mpd 328
nobody 50
root 23

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the bug is not a gdm one then but a known consolekit issue, it shouldn't count non login session this way

[Vsevolod Velichko (torkvemada)]

I coudn't find appropriate bug for consolekit.
Should I reassign this one to consolekit or you can find such bug to mark this one as duplicate?
