[Bug 298217] Re: no second attempt and no feedback when wrong password entered

[Eliah Kagan]

Bug 773284 has recently been marked a duplicate of this bug. Does that
mean this bug should be reopened for releases where it is occurring
again? (Or is bug 773284 to be considered separate from this?)

Bug description:
  When starting, for example, Synaptic Package Manager, the password
  dialog that is presented only allows one attempt. If the wrong
  password is entered, the dialog simply disappears, and nothing else
  happens. This is confusing, and also annoying, since I then have to go
  through the menus again to selecte Synaptic a second time.

  LAST TESTED: gksu 2.0.2-2ubuntu2 (10.04 LTS)
