I just installed timekpr-next through the ppa for my Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS. But when I run the sudo version of it, it shows no user name.

Do you have any users which are "normal" non admins?

Please check that user id are within the normal user id limits:
    grep -e '^UID_M' -e 'UID_M' /etc/login.defs

To help you further, I need at least a log file which can be found there:
    /var/log/timekpr.log

It looks like your issue is that uuid for "user" is out of normal user uuid limits, yours is 240 thousand plus, however maximum is 60 thousand.

Either change the uuid for user to be within limits or change limits to accomodate that very large id.

Can you help with this problem?
