Description Martin Nowack 2005-09-21 02:10:05 UTC

Since version 1.6.8 /etc/sudoers get installed with wrong permission.   
Thats why sudo complains about wrong permission in logfiles and prevent   
starting applications.  
  
This can be easely fixed changing the last line in the src_install() section  
from  
     fperms 0640 /etc/sudoers 
to 
     fperms 0440 /etc/sudoers 
   

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

that's odd...seems to have changed between 1.6.8_p9 and -r1. 

I dont know why that was changed, but it's fixed in cvs anyway.

Thanks for the report.
