Package: kde
Version: 5:47
Severity: normal
The 'Password & User Account' modules of the 'Control Center' is by
default disallowing users from changing their pictures and provides no
way for them to work around this (e.g. by providing the root password).
To replicate: As a normal user, load control centre, click 'security &
privacy', click 'password & user account', click on the button with the
blank picture at the top (which is to the left of the name of the user),
and you'll get a message saying 'your administrator has disallowed
changing your image'.
This happens on a fresh install of Etch (RC2) on my laptop after KDE and
the relevent latest updates are installed for the system via apt.
Interestingly, my desktop, which I upgraded to Etch from Sarge over 7
months ago with an almost indentical install, allows normal users to
change this image without a fuss.
