When the login/lock screen is shown the error messages for background services are always ignored. However, in case the service is the fingerprint authentication method we still want to be able to show error messages to inform the user about what failed, and eventually that the max retries (that may be different from the login screen configuration) has been reached. This handles partially the design issue [1] related to the login/lock screen fingerprint authentication. Eventually we want to use pam extensions to use clearer and parse-able messages, however in the case of the fingerprint service we can be sure that the fprint PAM module will only send errors on auth failures.
