I never said Debian does a bad work. Sometimes debian maintainers do errors (he who works may fail), sometimes my opinion is that the design choice is not good, sometimes I even wonder wich kind of mushroom they used for their 'risotto coi funghi'. I think that I switched to Debian more than 10 years ago, and I am sticking with Debian at least for the most recent HW and the HW I use to work. (I could consider another distro for my old iMac lamp, since last stable is unusable at this time due a problem with the frame buffer handling during boot). > You need to inform yourself, to know that there's a callback for > the danger to life baby bottle.

Linux distros aren't nannies. Chances are that these messages are not as widespread as you may suppose. Remember, you quoted two powerful companies and the transmission intelligence branch of one of the topmost superpower on the planet. These guys have enough power to "control the media" or worse. Do you think that *all* Italians are this [censored] to vote Mr. Berlusconi for 20 years without understanding how [bunga bunga] he is? (Hmmm, those who did not vote Berlusconi voted for a left wing that spent more energies destroying herself than in doing something sensible...

This is a stance good for Windows, Mac OS/X, AIX, Solaris... Free Software MUST be better, especially free software so concerned with the society to have a strong social contract. > Did you already file a bug report about the security issue by sudo? > It's useless to continue the discussion.

But there is an even better approach I took... Improve sudo if possible.
