Do not change the line from "admin" to "adm".
The "admin" group was renamed to "sudo". The "adm" group is used for
something else and should not be part of the sudoers file.
The "admin" group needs to stay in that file to properly handle people
who upgraded systems from earlier releases. Upgrading to newer releases
doesn't automatically migrate users to the new "sudo" group, so removing
it will cause someone who just upgraded to lose sudo privileges, and
rendering them unable to fix the issue.
I am closing this bug as there is no change needed to that file.
** Changed in: sudo (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
