[Bug 345619] Re: gksudo eats standard input when there's a sudo timestamp

2009-03-19 Thread Gustavo Noronha Silva
Hey, piping stuff through gksu is not really supported. This is a severe limitation I am trying to get fixed in gksu's new major version (gksu PolicyKit): http://live.gnome.org/gksu. [lunchpad doesn't seem to like webkitgtk+... it thinks I'm uploading a 0-sized file =), when I'm uploading nothing]

[Bug 314250] Re: Assistive techologies: password dialogs as normal window + onscreen keyboard

2009-02-22 Thread Gustavo Noronha Silva
I believe lots of these problems are going to be solved by a version of gksu that is mainloop-based, and that uses the policykit framework for the actual authentication. How feasible is it for the Ubuntu guys to plan for a switch to gksu policykit at this point in time? http://live.gnome.org/gksu.

It is supposed to print that, yeah; the problem here is sudo is giving up the option to show whatever the pam module told it to display. -- gksudo doesn't ask for a password https://launchpad.net/bugs/54582 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailma

FYI, I'm working on code that makes a lot more sense for fading when gksu is running under a composited environment. That means we'll have a much better experience with compiz/composited-metacity in the near future. -- Flicker when fading back in after password prompt https://launchpad.net/bugs/5

2006-07-31 Thread Gustavo Noronha Silva
The -p option is for sudo; it will replace sudo's password prompt for something; in this case GNOME_SUDO_PASS. If you call sudo -p GNOME_SUDO_PASS ls it must present you that prompt, but if pam tells it to use something else, it will just ignore this. We probably need to patch sudo to respect this

I agree... this is done like this to let applications calling gksu know if an error to the process of scaling privileges has happened. We could change that to a message printed to stderr instead, and make gksu return the error code returned by the application. What do you think, Michael? -- Doesn
