I don't know how to test it. I never build/compile/patch a package before. Can
you assist me?

I know about the Squeeze freeze, but in my eyes this problem is a big security
problem!
Currently everyone can see the PIN which is entered. Imagine you are at a public
place like a train or a coffee bar, there are several people around you in a
near distance!

Don't know if this is enough for a RC-bug from the Debian point of view, from my
point of view it is RC!

Thanks!
Achim
