Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: sudo
The default /etc/sudoers file in lucid contains the following
description and setting:
"# Allow members of group sudo to not need a password\n",
"# (Note that later entries override this, so you might need to
move\n",
"# it further down)\n",
"%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL\n",
but this configuration still requires a passwd
should be
"%sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL\n"
or the comment should be changed to reflect the password-required
behavior.
(and yes, I moved the line to the end of the /etc/sudoers file so that
it wasn't overwritten by %admin)
The source of the bug is in the DEBIAN/postinstall script.
I also verified that the DEBIAN/postinstall script for 8.04.4 LTS has the
correct syntax.
