Well, in fact it seems to be caused by PAM translating the password prompt. > The obvious result is that gksu doesn't work anymore in this case. > Furthermore, the -p option of sudo doesn't work in non-default locales > (bug #448628), which makes it impossible to fix for the moment. The problem lies in auth/pam.c, where the PAM password is replaced only if it is found to be the default one - which it obviously isn't when it is translated. I'm attaching a patch to replace the password nevertheless when the user explicitly asked for it. Please apply it to make gksudo usable again. Thanks, -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
