when entering a command, Terminal is asking for a password.

[Asoka Dissanayake]

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

Whenever I try to enter something in the CLI (command line interface) I am asked for a password which I do not know about. I have only the log in password. If I enter that it says sorry try again. I am fed up with this already.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
