Bug#823368: sudo: Please whitelist new DPKG_COLORS environment variable

[Guillem Jover]

Package: sudo
Version: 1.8.15-1.1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi!

Starting with version 1.18.5, dpkg now supports colors which can
enabled via the environment variable DPKG_COLORS. It would be nice if
this could be whitelisted in a similar way as COLORS and LS_COLORS are
already whitelisted.

Attached a patch implementing this.

Thanks,
Guillem
