I continue my Debian Buster 64-bit installation story at last I found GUI for user administration or Xfce it is gnome-system-tools, I though that gnome means only for Gnome desktop, but it didn't. I install it and but when I started it's user-admin then it hang.

I found information from Ubuntu bug report that it do that and won't fix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ls/+bug/685215
They say: "But this is not a bug. You shouldn't run users-admin as root"

Whaat! Are Linux guys going crazy. Who do user administration if it's not root? ...Guest?
