[Bug 1498775] Re: Greeter auth doesn't unlock unity lockscreen

 

Tried this again I can reproduce it *only if* I switch to another
user(name).

If the system has two (or more) users and I click another username from
the indicator but instead I select my current logged-in user and write
the password the lock screen blinks and asks for the password a second
time.  The second time accepts the password and unlocks the session.

If I click the 'Lock/Switch Account' in the indicator, greeter works as
it should without problems.

This has been tested with package,
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/1.16.2-0ubuntu1

Any other test-case is welcome.

Regards
NickTh
