accountsservice: Add patch to disable user preload
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is a mitigation to a yet unresolved nic problem with
OptiPlex 990 workstations. If we have a local passwd, the
accountsservice daemon will query shadow.byname over udp
for each account. Because of the network problem, we
sometimes loose packets and run into rpc timeouts, which are
not properly handled and prevent gdm to display the login
window.

Avoid this mess by disabling the loading of user information.
We don't need it, because we don't present a list of users to
pick from anyway.
