Description of problem: evolution-connector password dialog displays password as you type, rather than asterisks Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-connector-1.5.92-3 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up an MS Exchange account within Evolution 2. "Enter Password" dialog appears next time you Send/Receive email 3. Try typing into password entry field Actual results: Password appears on-screen in plaintext Expected results: Asterisks so that the person looking over my shoulder doesn't see it. Additional info:
Have tracked this down; it's a API mismatch between connector version 1.5.92 and evolution version 1.5.93; they've added a flag which must be set to hide the password to e_passwords_get_password (since in theory this can be used for non-password entries, though it's a bad API name in that case, if you ask me...) Should be fixed once I bump connector version to 1.5.93
Fixed now in Rawhide: evolution-connector-1.5.93-1
