though

Title:
gnome-about-me: Error changing face image
Status in GNOME Control Center:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gdm
I change my face image in gnome-about-me by selecting About Me from
the system menu. I select my face image, let's say by selecting the
dice.jpg file in the /usr/share/pixmaps/faces directory. ~/.face is
created. I restart twice and the dice image is shown as my face image
in the face browser.
I now manually change the ~/.face file to astronaut.jpg (cp
/usr/share/pixmaps/faces/astronaut.jpg ~/.face). When I restart, the
astronaut image is now shown as my face image in the face browser but
the dice image is still shown as the face image in gnome-about-me.
The face image in gnome-about-me should also change even if the
~/.face file is manually changed.
Also, according to Section 2.6 at
http://library.gnome.org/admin/gdm/stable/overview.html.en, I should
be able to show a face image in the face browser by creating a file
called <username> in the /usr/share/pixmaps/faces directory. This
does not work. I am not sure if this is by design in Karmic or if
it's a bug.
