Description José Carlos García Sogo 2004-01-14 22:36:08 UTC 
In Debian systems users-admin from gnome-system-tools erases data from
those files when a ISO-8859 Real Name with accented vowels is added.

 Please, look at http://bugs.debian.org/227683 for more info.

 Thanks

I talked with Teo, sent him a patch that turned the descriptors
blocking when writing the config and it seems that the problem is
fixed. Closing the bug :))

(BTW, it wasn't accented vowels, it seems that it was a problem with
glibc streams and non-blocking descriptors)
