I didn't notice when the upstream Makefile changed to deliver this by default. Fixed in my revision control system for the next upload. Bdale signature.asc Description: PGP signature

A sudoers example already exists, maybe it should be moved to sudoers.long and the upstream sample installed into sudoers? /usr/share/doc/sudo/examples/sudoers.gz -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Bug#862309: Don't install /etc/sudoers.dist sample file
Package: sudo Version: 1.8.20-1 Severity: normal Hi, the latest update installed a new conffile /etc/sudoers.dist. Afaics, this is a sample file provided by upstream and I don't think this should go into /etc, /etc/sudoers and our conffile mechanism is sufficient. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages sudo depends on: ii libaudit1 1:2.6.7-2 ii libc6 2.24-10 ii libpam-modules 1.1.8-3.5 ii libpam0g1.1.8-3.5 ii libselinux1 2.6-3+b1 ii lsb-base9.20161125 sudo recommends no packages. sudo suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/sudoers [Errno 13] Keine Berechtigung: '/etc/sudoers' /etc/sudoers.d/README [Errno 13] Keine Berechtigung: '/etc/sudoers.d/README' -- no debconf information
