I can't seem to reproduce this behaviour.

You didn't state what version you're using, so that might be one issue,
and I also didn't have a newly installed system, but I made sure the
"self" user in e-d-s was deleted before running g-a-m.

Thanks for your reply:),  I know this issue is very weird. Our gnome-control-centrer version is 2.26.0.
I am not familiar with the development of gtk, and I tried to analysis the source code of gnome-about-me, but I can't find which file saves the self information, or which config file would be load when gnome-about-me started, can you tell me?
Maybe there's something wrong when creating/updating data file of gnome-about-me.

thanks a lot .
