This is why we *have* tools like dispatch-conf and etc-update - So you can review changes before blindly copying it over like other distros. Assigning to maintainer for review but I'm fairly certain that this won't be fixed. Actually, I don't think this even can be "fixed" - there is nothing wrong. Really there is nothing easily feasible to workaround this. In truth, it's a good thing that the ebuild does not try to read the sudoers file, because it could cause sensible information leaking if it did. If you don't want the changes, just use -2 to etc-update to drop it, there is no syntax change it's just using a different template (the one provided by upstream) from the old one (one customised for Gentoo that was falling out of date). |
