Title: sudo not properly cleaning out timestamp directory Status in sudo package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in sudo source package in Wily: Fix Released Status in sudo package in Debian: New Bug description: Sudo 1.8.10 switched to a new time stamp file format that uses the monotonic clock. Timestamp files moved from /var/lib/sudo to /var/lib/sudo/ts. At boot, the contents of the /var/lib/sudo/ts directory needs to be deleted, as per the warning in the build log: configure: Warning: the /var/lib/sudo/ts directory must be cleared at boot time. configure: You may need to create a startup item to do this. The sudo package ships with both an init script and a systemd unit file. Unfortunately, the init script sets the date on the timestamp files to epoch, which is no longer the proper way to invalidate them. The systemd unit file doesn't seem to work at all.
