[systemd-devel] systemctl runs systemd-tty-ask-password-agent and hangs?

Hello all

Sometimes (not sure when), when I run

systemctl stop foo.service

where foo.service is in this state:

foo.service loaded failed failed stop Foo

systemctl just hangs. I can see that it has started a process called

/bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent --watch

which is apparently waiting for input of some kind, but I don't know
where or what.

It hangs until I kill systemctl with Ctrl-C.

I'm running systemd-22-1.fc15.x86_64 and upgraded the machine from
FC14 using yum distro-sync, if that matters.

Regards

Albert
