[Bug 906081] [NEW] Disabling 'Login without a password' does not remove user from the nopasswdlogin group

 

Public bug reported:

Fresh install of Ubuntu Oneiric.  Created a new user account using
'adduser' on the command line, then set 'Login without a password' via
'User Management' in gnome-control-center.  After performing some
additional initial configuration of the box, went back to 'User
Management', disabled 'Login without a password', and configured a
password for the user.  On subsequent reboots, was still able to login
without a password.  Tried enabling and disabling 'Login without a
password' several times via 'User Management', but eventually had to
manually remove the user from the 'nopasswdlogin' group to disable this
feature.

** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
