2016-03-28 14:29:19 Michael Terry description After going through the new wizard, the user's "RealName" setting is still "Ubuntu" (the default). This is because usermod (used by AccountsService in the background) chokes on read-only /etc. It needs to be modified to handle that gracefully. If you have a writable device image, you won't see this bug, which is how it escaped into the wild. :( After going through the new wizard, the user's "RealName" setting is still "Ubuntu" (the default). This is because: A) unity8 incorrectly tries to set RealName (AccountsService makes you use SetRealName, not normal dbus property setters) B) usermod (used by AccountsService in the background) chokes on read-only /etc. It needs to be modified to handle that gracefully. (If you have a writable device image, you won't see this part)
