This machine was upgraded from Leap 15.0 to 15.1 during the beta
testing phase. The upgrade was done by switching all the repos to the
15.1 version, followed by zypper dup.
At that time, there were two users on the machine, both of whom
continue to be able to login satisfactorily. I have tried to create a
third user using the YaST module, and it appears to work, but the new
user cannot login. When I enter the password and click Login, the
password gets highlighted in blue, and the message 'Login failed'
appears.
When logged in as a working user, I cannot su to the new user:
09:41 bob@europa:~> su newuser
Password:
su: Authentication failure
Although newuser's home gets created, it is missing some of the default
directories, such as ~/Documents, ~/Pictures etc.:
bob@europa:~> ls -alh /home/newuser

Can anyone else confirm this behaviour?
