I can't do much about this myself, thus CCing upstream. Quoting Timo's response from the ML: “The uinput hack should not trigger when a password is used. Having that said, I have not seen the CR to be emitted when using a password. It's probably a Fedora specific issue.” Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping It is not Fedora specific. It has been found in Ubuntu as well. Initially we had to work around a bug in HAL, and once Jon Oberheide worked around that problem we saw this other one with multiple <cr>. I found that r116 in Thinkfinger had introduced this extra <cr> defect, and could be reverted given the other fix. I run with a locally fixed version of pam_thinkfinger.so containing both Jon's patch and reverting r116, and all works fine. This problem is present in Fedora 10. *** Bug 435992 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
