[Fingerforce-devel] Bug#731382: libpam-fprintd: do not show password if user enters one

[Shawn Landden]

Package: libpam-fprintd
Version: 0.5.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: security

Users are use to entering passwords at login prompts and the like.
It would be nice if libpam-fprintd could swallow the input like
password prompts do, instead of prominentally displaying the user's password
if they type it in.
