Package: sudo Version: 1.8.21-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When using the option -A, sudo does not run the command after prompting for the password. I tried the following: $ export SUDO_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ssh-askpass $ sudo -A echo a $ where I get the last prompt after correctly entering the password in ssh-askpass. If I enter a wrong password, it correctly displays an error message and asks again for the password. Weirder, I get: $ export SUDO_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ssh-askpass $ sudo -A echo a $ sudo -A echo a a where the second run doesn’t need the password, since it was entered the first time… So I can work-around the bug adding a dummy sudo -A echo > /dev/null before the useful sudo.
