The manpage sudo_root.8 seems completely outdated to me. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/raring/sudo/raring/files/head:/debian/ shows that even in the raring development source its last update was made with Rev 14, dated 2006-08-23 18:05:48 UTC. Different from the other sudo-related manpages whose source is in the doc directory and which are rebuilt from *.man.in sources (with last modification in Nov. 2012), the sudo_root manpage is a fixed text in the debian directory, and as far as I can see, only existing in Ubuntu, and not in Debian.
Also in my opinion this is a bug, clicking 'also affects me'. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130643 Title: Documentation error "man sudo root" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/1130643/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
