Product: Gentoo Linux Reporter: Adam Bowers <adbowers>
Component: New packagesAssignee: Gentoo Linux bug wranglers <bug-wranglers>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE    
Severity: enhancement    
Priority: High    
Version: unspecified

Runtime testing required: ---

Description Adam Bowers 2008-06-04 16:11:32 UTC
When entering the sudo password in Porthole, if the user types in the wrong password there is no way to retry.  Closing the sync/emerge window isn't enough, Porthole must be restarted to get another attempt.  It would be nice if it would come back with another attempt or two.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run Porthole
2.Attempt an action that requires elevated privileges.
3.Enter in wrong password.
