Comment 25 for bug 1971559

Sebastien, thanks for your reply.
First of all, considering that this is a somewhat special (though not unlikely) setup on our side, you may demote this bug from importance high to lower. This is to remove strain on you developers, this bug will only concern special institutional setups like ours and never will concern private users. Take a break ;-).

The problem did not appear upon update to 20.04. Was there a comparable "initial-setup" dialog in 20.04?

This is a multi-user installation at a school.
I flagged the linadmin user (and other local users we utilize for managing our services) as being system users manually. I did that to not have them displayed in gdm's user list at tje login page. There may be more appropriate ways of doing this, if you know of them (lest disabling the user list altogether), let me know, please.

At the tome being, I can workaround the issue by creating some local dummy user nit tagged as system.

My suggestion is to have included into the initial-install wizard an option to skip the dialog if root is sure about it.
