Hi, can you please open an upstream report at https://github.com/zhuyaliang/user-admin/issues ? I do not have an system with only a root account, in result i can't confirm your issue.

Hi Patrick, any chance to test https://github.com/zhuyaliang/user-admin/commit/7016ec17eb28ff78024da5408fad64a6261e4707 ? I am happy to add it to spec file if it fixes the issue.
I was rather waiting for an rpm in updates-testing as I have no dev env on the 0-users vm.
Scratch build for testing https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=145155639 Note, i added some more commits from user-admin master branch. https://github.com/zhuyaliang/user-admin/commits/master/
Thanks for the scratch build. Tested successfully on a 0-user system: - Does not crash anymore. The 0-user warning popup still appears, though. - The lock button and its tooltip are not very clear (no real indication if the lock is active or not). But that's another problem out of the current scope. The bug is fixed. Thanks. Patrick
You should send your observations to upstream bugreport. New build coming soon.
