I expected it to work normal giving me root access to the commands.
It gave me an error message that says"sudoers.so"must be writeable
only by the user and actually it is set up to be read and write for
all,that was my mistake when I ran a chmod 777 for the whole lib
directory since then sudo does not work and now when I try to chmod
without sudo it says,permission denied and when I try with sudo it
gives me the error,so it is a circle I can not get out of.Another
problem I have,probably,from the same origin,is the authentication
label that do not show the line where the password should be inserted
and instead it shows an error message that says something about the
/usr/lib/policykit being restored to its original state.Well this is
all I have to say ,for the moment. Thanks.Please see if you can help
me.
