Missing name & debsums files

[cavy]

Hi guys,

New to Sparky  8) and installed Mate on Friday, I'm impressed.  :)

The "About Me" page from the Control Centre lists me as UNKNOWN. I was expecting to see my full name and username, not just my username.   ???

Ran the following commands:

Code Select Expand

anthony@tower:~$ echo $USER_NAME
                                 <---- blank
anthony@tower:~$ finger anthony
Login: anthony        Name: <-------------------blank
Directory: /home/anthony            Shell: /bin/bash
On since Sun Apr  2 11:20 (BST) on tty7 from :0
   1 minute 14 seconds idle
Mail last read Fri Mar 31 18:33 2017 (BST)
No Plan.

Is this a Sparky foible, then no worries,  ;)  if not, how do I rectify.  8)

Hi
It's strange...
All files have md5sum, even md5sum itself...
