No, obviously..:-)

I'm still waiting for someone to give me an argument for the choice of
only one prompt, so it seems this issue is over and we have to
reinstate the root password confirmation at critical priority...:-)

Thanks to all people who contributed to this thread. Don't forget me,
I have another issue to submit to Your Wisdom soon (the Good Old bug
#166718 which I first need to sumarize..:-)).
