Public bug reported:
Recently I have noticed that when I am being prompted for the passphrase
for to unlock a GPG/SSH key via the gnome-shell prompter, whilst the
prompt is visible the requesting window seems to get spammed by input -
this can be reproduced via running the following (but replace the gpg
recipient with the one of your own user's private key):
$ echo RELOADAGENT | gpg-connect-agent; echo foo | gpg --encrypt
--recipient alex.mur...@canonical.com | gpg --decrypt
See attached for a short video demonstrating the issue.
