First you got rid of the ROOT login.

Next you got rid of SUDO.

Now SU doesn’t work.

And now I am fully protected from myself.

 I can’t update my system.  No at at all.  Authenticate doesn’t
work.

 I can’t download software, since I don’t have any means to
authenticate.

 I can’t update su, which doesn’t work.  The system doesn’t even
come with sudo.


This indicates a broken system, not a broken distribution. Please 
contact debian-u...@lists.debian.org for user support.
