[Bug 924732] Re: sudo not hide password when typing

[Romanos Dodopoulos]

I think that there is nothing special at the script.

The bug appeared when I run a launcher from desktop which has command 
gnome-terminal --hide-menubar --title=upgrade_system --geometry=132x38 -x ./update_upgrade d

I run it about 20 times, and just reproduced it for 4th time. After that
I try about 50 times without effect and then 10 more in a row and
reproduced 2 more times.
