Bug#734908: gcr-prompter steals all focus

Package: gcr
Version: 3.8.2-4
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software


Hi.

Apparently gcr-prompter (well I guess it is this)... seems to have the
"nice" effect of stealing mouse and keyboard focus, when a "enter password"
dialog is open.

So I cannot even start a terminal, or switch to an existing one and kill the
crap.


To me this happens when Evolution (as so often) forgets out of the blue all
of it's configured passwords and wants me to reenter them.


critical/breaks unrelated software ... well because it does just that...
I cannot use/control other software anymore, once this kicks in.


Cheers,
Chris.
