Symbol Characters In Password Causing Admin Popups To Fail

[Félim Whiteley]

Hi Folks,

I've just rebuilt my system from full disk to only ecrypt home folder. I 
obviously tried make a complicate password. It contains £$! characters and is 
causing a few things to fail to accept it. Jockey wouldn't, gdebi-kde also and 
neither would KPackageKit when I tried to add extra repos. Some do though 
which is odd... 

Taking a VERY rough guess it looks liek it might be the python wrapper apps 
messing up the $... but then again I should try to second guess it ;)

Do you want bugs for each or are these all well know... 

Cheers,

Félim
