The current app-admin/sudo packages do not use the USE="selinux" flag to enable selinux support. Enabling this allows SELinux users to define types and roles in the sudoers file and provide type/role information as a command-line option.

Enabling --with-selinux (through "$(use_with selinux")) is sufficient here (it automatically updates the man pages etc.)

Reproducible: Always
