However, this seems to be something to do with : being interpreted as a list (sometimes?), which might make the release-notes on its own -- this seems missing from sudoers(5) in trixie (i wonder if this is going to cause other surprising changes, where the user asks for "A:B" but sudo silently uses A and B. this all seems like needless complexity to me. and how can the user put a file with : in a list?)
