[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 16 Bugfix for ipa-client-install echo's password in cleartext to stdout

2011-02-14 Thread JR Aquino
During the ipa-client-install, when prompted for the principal password, it is 
possible to start typing and have the password echoed back.

This patch corrects this behavior and addresses bug #959

It works well if you provide a password but if you just hit ENTER you 
end up in no-man's land waiting for something to happen. What is 
happening under the hood is kinit has also prompted but stdout/stderr is 
not being displayed.


So nack, we should catch that empty password and error out or re-prompt 
or something.
