I've checked our "sudo" package and the sudoers file is explicitly tagged as %config since the early days. So RPM should not have overwritten this file. I've no clue how this is possible. The only explanation is that is is tagged as: '%config %attr(0400,root,%{l_mgrp}) %{l_prefix}/etc/sudo/sudoers' And perhaps because you have done it not as "root", RPM was not able to set the "root" ownership on the file and perhaps of this the %config tagging was also ignored. But this is only a wild guess. Ralf S.
