If running from a terminal window, the terminal window displays the following error several times: "** (users-admin:2714): CRITICAL **: file gst-report-line.c: line 196: assertion `major != GST_MAJOR_INVALID' failed".  Also no log file is created in /var/run/setup-tool-backends/debug/users where there man page for users-admin says it should be.  Indeed /var/run/setup-tool-backends does not exist.

I do have the following problem here:

Starting users-manager  - the GTK window appears and tells me - you don't have enough rights - su couldn't proceed.

this is a fresh install of  oi-151 ..

think it's only a small bug - but couldn't find out how to solve it
