Per discussion in #ubuntu-hardened, the Ubuntu Security guys are opposed to the change I proposed above.
Thus, this bug is closed, and should be handled in documentation. I have added a section to the sudoer's documentation: * https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers#Enabling%20Visual%20Feedback%20when%20Typing%20Passwords Those who want to enable visual feedback, can do so in the configuration file. Sorry. -- Entering password in Terminal gives no visual feedback https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194472 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
