[Bug 398444] Re: Why passwords letters are not showed as * ?
HU ? :O Sorry, but I disagree. For instance, on our french online doc/help/forum (http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org), there are plenty of pages written for beginners that kindly ask to run a command in a terminal. Half of them are sudo commands. (e.g. if you're stuck with the wifi, which is quite often : http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/wifi) ;) Am I wrong ? -- Why passwords letters are not showed as * ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/398444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree with the last comment. Most often, than we would like to accept , an average Ubuntu user has to use the sudo command in the terminal. Not providing the feedback only confuses the user more. An advanced user might be aware of this, but the average user will definitely be confused. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- Why passwords letters are not showed as * ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/398444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Password masking behavior in the terminal is not appropriate paper cut material because it obtains only in advanced user scenarios. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- Why passwords letters are not showed as * ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/398444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
