(Get the code!)
my problem was not fixed by this patch:
I created the other users on my box at work some days before with gnome-system-tools after a fresh install of karmic-rc, but am not able to change passwords with the gui. I tried with random password and with typing a password two times by hand.
I had immediately success on the other side when using "sudo passwd <username>" like in old days.
I changed passwords and even rebooted without effect. Of course this actions should have effect immediately. After changing password i should be able to login as this other user with the newly set password.
the new title of this bug is IMO wrong, as i was able to set contact info of my other users. Only password setting seems to fail (so the old title was wrong too :-) )
