Package: ssh-askpass-fullscreen Version: 0.3-3 Severity: important If you pass a string with angle brackets into it into ssh-askpass-fullscreen, then it will attempt to parse the string as some kind of markup. If the parsing fails, then ssh-askpass-fullscreen will display no prompt at all. This failure to properly display a prompt leaves the user with no idea what is going on.
For example: m...@palm:~$ ssh-askpass-fullscreen 'Enter passphrase for <m...@mlcastle.net>' (ssh-askpass-fullscreen:17193): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 1 char 90: 'm...@mlcastle.net' is not a valid name: '@' However, other ssh-askpass implementations (such as ssh-askpass-gnome and the the canonical ssh-askpass) do not have this markup-parsing 'feature' and so display the provided text without a problem. ssh-askpass-fullscreen should do the same; otherwise, it violates the interface assumptions that ssh-askpass has offered for years. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (650, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 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 ssh-askpass-fullscreen depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.28.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.18.3-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.26.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libx11-6 2:1.3.2-1 X11 client-side library ssh-askpass-fullscreen recommends no packages. ssh-askpass-fullscreen suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
