Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: emacs22
The password prompt in sudo changed between feisty and gutsy, but the
default comint-password-prompt-regexp has not changed to catch it, The
user can always type M-x send-invisible, but it would be nice if the
default install caught prompts from all the usual suspects.
Fix: in comint.el,
<pre>
(defcustom comint-password-prompt-regexp
"\\(\\([Oo]ld \\|[Nn]ew \\|'s \\|login \\|Kerberos \\|CVS \\|UNIX \\| SMB
\\|\\[sudo\\] \\|^\\)[Pp]assword\\( (again)\\)?\\|pass
phrase\\|\\(Enter\\|Repeat\\|Bad\\) passphrase\\)\\(?:, try again\\)?\\(?: for
[^:]+\\)?:\\s *\\'"
"*Regexp matching prompts for passwords in the inferior process.
This is used by `comint-watch-for-password-prompt'."
:type 'regexp
:group 'comint)
</pre>
** Affects: emacs22 (Ubuntu)
