While the original patch does indeed make authentication work. There is still a condition that creates two users in the database/webui.


Setup external auth, enable it as the mode. Log in as the UID of the LDAP user, user will show up under Users in UI.  Logout and login with email address of the user. another duplicate user will be created, when in fact they are the same user.
