Public bug reported:

After enrolling my right index fingerprint to ElanTech Fingerprint
Sensor, I am unable to login via fingerprint swipe. I am able to see the
(very faint) option to swipe my finger under the password entry field,
but when I swipe, nothing happens.  I've tried swiping both directions,
just touching the sensor like I was able to in Windows (I used to dual
boot) and holding my finger down for a few seconds.  There's no
indication of whether the sensor read anything and it just didn't
process, or if it's just not getting any info.

I'm including the apt-cache policy for control center and for the gnome
shell, jic it's not a problem with the control center.
