Up to date ~amd64 system. ~ $ sudo -i sudo: /etc/environment: No such file or directory sudo is installed with: [ebuild R ] app-admin/sudo-1.8.29::gentoo USE="secure-path sendmail -gcrypt -ldap -libressl -nls -offensive -pam -sasl (-selinux) -skey -sssd -system-digest" 0 KiB
/etc/environment is normally installed by sys-libs/pam, not app-admin/sudo.
So sudo shouldn't be looking for it. I did 'echo $PATH > /etc/environment' to get rid of this message.
This did not happen in earlier releases?
Can't recall, there are three versions currently in portage, I rolled back to sudo-1.8.27 and it gives me no error, then I tried sudo-1.8.28_p1 and it gives me the message. So I'd say sudo-1.8.28 is the first version affected.
Can you please test the following patch from upstream? https://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/raw-rev/f85ff5ee2caf
It fails currently. Perhaps I should try with **9999** version of sudo. >>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/app-admin/sudo-1.8.29/work/sudo-1.8.29 ... * Applying pam.patch ... 2 out of 3 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file plugins/sudoers/env.c.rej I have to go, will try and get more info when I get back.
The patch applies cleanly on app-admin/sudo-1.8.29-r1. Perhaps your web browser corrupted the patch. Please try curl or wget instead.
Yes, wget did it. Patch applies and the annoying message is gone. Thanks.
