[DESKTOP] user manager

[markslaw]

A real curiosity here. I created a second user on my machine to run applications I really don't want under my primary account. So far so good. I log into my primary account and click on user manager and can't see the second user account. I log into the second account and can see both! Not a huge deal, but curious. What's going on?

I have a similar issue. I added several new users, the last one I added does not show up in the system-settings_user-manager, but I can see that user in the old kuser app or via the cli, strange. I must admit, I haven't put much energy into trying to figure out why yet. 15.04 and plasma 5.3 from backports

I'm with you. It's not really worth a whole lot of my time or psychic energy to figure out, though I am curious what's going on here. Could just be "undocumented features" in Kubuntu 15. I'm keeping my eyes on the coming updates, myself....
