            Bug ID: 336994
           Summary: User Manager does not show one particular user in the
                    list unless I login as that user
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 4.11.9
          Platform: Mint (Ubuntu based)
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm_useraccount
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org

I'm using Linux Mint KDE 17.  I did a fresh install with let's abbreviate this
'usera'.  I added 'userb' and saw that message about the password being too
simple.  So I made it more complex and just used 'passwd' sudo'd as root to
change it; not realizing that the error was just a note and not a show-stopper.
 So I 'deluser userb', deleted their home folder, and re-created 'userb'.  Then
I created 'userc'.  The problem is that no matter what I do regarding deleting
'userb' via shell or through the tool, I cannot get 'userb' to show up in the
user list unless I actually login as 'userb'.  The other users always show up
fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I tried to reproduce this problem again by creating 'userd' and deleting
manually or through KDE, and it works fine every time.  I am stuck with 'userb'
not showing up in the interface now unless I login as them.  It's a valid
account and I did nothing unusual after the cleanup and re-do events.
Actual Results:  
n/a

Expected Results:  
All users should be showing up in the user list with their name and login as
they are all administrators.  Something's quirky with 'userb' that KDE isn't
showing them unless logging in as 'userb'.

So far, everything else is working great!  Thanks to the KDE team and Linux
Mint team.
