Dear Maintainer,
As per bug subject, adding a username with uppercase letters fails poorly. To
reproduce the problem:
[Steps to Reproduce]
1. Open gnome-control-center
2. Go to Details -> Users
3. Unlock it using the button in top-right corner
4. Click on "Add user..."
5. In the dialog, in the "Username" field enter an username with at least one
uppercase letter (e.g. "Andrea")
6. Click on "Add"
[Current behavior]
An error dialog is displayed:
- Title: Failed to add account
- Content: running '/usr/sbin/adduser' failed: Child process exited with code
1.
[Expected behavior]
gnome-control-center should not accept usernames with uppercase letters.
