Doesn't working gnome-control-center user-accounts.

As I have installed arch, I have installed gnome via pacman -S gnome gnome-extra. After installation I have rebooted. I have successfully logined as root. All seems to be okay, instead the fact that gnome-control-center user-accounts doesn't starts. I must notice the fact that all other options of gnome-control-center works very well!!! gnome-control-center user-accounts gives this information:

root:~ # gnome-control-center user-accounts

(gnome-control-center:20884): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_set_text: assertion 'text != NULL' failed

(gnome-control-center:20884): AccountsService-CRITICAL **: act_user_set_language: assertion 'ACCOUNTS_IS_USER (user->accounts_proxy)' failed
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

And with verbose mode:

root:~ # gnome-control-center -v user-accounts

Re: Doesn't working gnome-control-center user-accounts.

Welcome to the arch linux forums constantor.  This would appear to be an issue in the upstream code.  Are you aware it is not recommended to run graphical environments  such as X or Wayland as root?
Please also use code tags not quote tags for command output.  See also General_recommendations#Users_and_groups
