Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: sudo
Hi,
After todays update I have a strange sudo problem that needs to be
solved:
if you enter a sudo command like this...
# sudo ... &
...and you did not login before via sudo your password is written on the
screen if you type it and all fails.
If you do it with out the '&' it works normally
# sudo ...
[sudo] password for me:
So if you do not play attention and just look at your keyboard while
typing, like I do ;-), you just reveal your password!
