[Bug 390396]

[Rjvbertin]

Confirmed for KDE 4.11.3 on Linux Mint Debian.

What's worse, System Settings doesn't appear to fetch the correct user
information. I explain:

- I created a new user via kuser, setting the desired full name
- I copied over ~/.kde and ~/.config from my own account to the new account
- I set the correct owner and group ship on the target
- I removed/corrected the references to the source user

Logging in as the new user, everything seems to be correct, and finger indeed shows the desired user information, including the full name.
However, System Settings insists on showing the full name from the source account, and also the email address associated.

Where does it get that information from? Apparently chfn is used to
change the full name info in /etc/passwd when a change is requested, but
the data is obtained from elsewhere?
