** Description changed:

  [SRU] 2.73: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/2132084
  
  [ Impact ]
  
- <add info...>
+ Only impacts Ubuntu 25.10+
+ With sudo-rs, -E` is ignored, which breaks snapd run --strace.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  1. Reproduce with snapd snap < 2.73
  
- <add info...>
+ - Ensure sudo-rs installed
+ - Run: snap run --strace <snap>.<app>
+ - Expect: warning: preserving the entire environment is not supported, `-E` 
is ignored
  
  2. Prove fixed with snapd snap 2.73
  
- <add info...>
+ - Ensure sudo-rs installed
+ - Run: snap run --strace <snap>.<app>
+ - Expect: No warning
  
  ---original---
  
  sudo-rs became the default sudo in 25.10, which broke this snap run
  --strace,
  
  $ snap run --strace <snap>.<app>
  warning: preserving the entire environment is not supported, `-E` is ignored
  [sudo: authenticate] Password:
  error: exit status 1
  
  It does work if I switch back to GNU Coreutils' sudo. The reason being
  many required environment variables are no longer passed through, and
  the strace fails due to SNAP_INSTANCE_NAME not being set, before we get
  to execve'ing the snap application itself.
  
  I commented on this use case in the sudo-rs issue tracker:
  https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/sudo-rs/issues/1299
  
  Maybe snapd needs to have a whitelist of environment variables?
