The latest release (available in ubuntu 9.04 "jaunty") should have this patch applied now. This is also available in the latest trunk via bzr:

bzr branch lp:origami

problem was simply a check regarding the distribution in a function that created the user account. different distributions install users differently so this needs to be done, and Mint wasn't listed as a known type. This has been fixed in the latest version.

Changed in origami:
assignee: nobody → christer.edwards
importance: Undecided → High
status: New → Fix Released
