Package: gksu Version: 2.0.2-6 Severity: important I tried to start synaptic from gnome-shell; a gksu window appeared to prompt for the root password. I pressed Tab, then Space to un-check the 'Remember password' check box. Then I pressed Shift+Tab, and nothing appeared to happen. I clicked in the 'Password:' text-entry box, which appeared to place the focus there, then typed the root password and pressed Enter; nothing appeared to happen.
Then I clicked 'Cancel', and saw that I had entered my root password into my IRC client and sent it as a PM. This behaviour is undesirable. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gksu depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.2.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3 ii libfreetype6 2.4.8-1 ii libgconf2-4 2.32.4-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.24.0-1 ii libgksu2-0 2.0.13~pre1-5 ii libglib2.0-0 2.30.2-4 ii libgnome-keyring0 3.2.2-1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.8-2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.29.4-2 ii libstartup-notification0 0.12-1 ii sudo 1.8.3p1-2 Versions of packages gksu recommends: ii gnome-keyring 3.2.2-1 gksu suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
