Description Didier Roche 2010-02-11 08:50:58 UTC 
With seahorse 2.29.90:

When I use gpg to sign packages seahorse pops up and asks for my password. When entering the password I see the raw password instead of the normal splodges, exposing my password for all to see.

Sweet, thanks for the quick fix :)
However, I can't find it in http://git.gnome.org/browse/seahorse-plugins/. Did you push it?

Yep.  Sorry, I was in a hurry out the door this morning.
