Comment 0 for bug 1343489

I have shell access to some systems where I am not root. I am trans woman and I legally changed my name in March and noticed that some systems are still showing my old name.

I then tried to fix it by running `chfn` which helpfully automatically filled my old name and went to next field, "room number". I couldn't find reason for this from quick google search nor the manual page. Why Ubuntu doesn't respect the right of self-definition, isn't this against the Coc?
