Bug description:
Binary package hint: libpam-fprint
I've been using thinkfinger for many releases, and fprint since Lucid
(since Ubuntu chose to no longer support thinkfinger). It was working
with Maverick until recently. At present, fprint will be used for
login and graphical apps such as update-manager, but when I run sudo
from a terminal, I am immediately prompted for a password.
I have checked the behavior with both the standard fprint packages and
those from the fprint team PPA, including replacing libpam-fprint with
the new libpam-fprintd. The behavior remains consistent. I am
prompted for a fingerprint *except* when using sudo.
So, to be clear, I performed all of the steps here
https://launchpad.net/~fingerprint/+archive/fprint?field.series_filter=maverick
and when I get to step 8, everything works EXCEPT for sudo.
