Bug#394895: gksu: Stores incorrect password in keyring

[Javier Kohen]

Package: gksu
Version: 2.0.0-1
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Gksu appends the newline character (0x0a) to the password entered by the user when adding it to GNOME's keyring. Apparently this behavior exists even if the gksu dialog is dismissed by clicking on the OK button, instead of by pressing the enter key.
