Title:
  Gnome Shell sudo dialog said "Sorry, that didn't work. Please try
  again" when opening Synaptic

Status in GNOME Shell:
  New
Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  How to reproduce the bug:
  1. Run Synaptic Package Manager, Gnome Shell's sudo dialog appear, enter password
  2. Exit Synaptic
  3. Run again, type password, and there's a message before pressing Enter: "Sorry, that didn't work. Please try again."

  Sometimes, after successfully installing some packages and
  installation/downloading dialog disappear, Synaptic's main window is
  still dark. This is usually happen when a dialog appears in front of a
  window, but the window should become normal again after the dialog
  disappears. I don't know whether this has relationship with the bug I
  am reporting.
