Disclaimer: this bug has been filed in a semi-automated manner. When emerging the package app-admin/sudo-1.8.5_p2, the following elog messages are displayed: * * sudo uses the /etc/ldap.conf.sudo file for ldap configuration. * * To use the -A (askpass) option, you need to install a compatible * password program from the following list. Starred packages will * automatically register for the use with sudo (but will not force * the -A option): * * [*] net-misc/ssh-askpass-fullscreen * net-misc/x11-ssh-askpass * * You can override the choice by setting the SUDO_ASKPASS environmnent * variable to the program you want to use. Such messages should only be displayed when the package is a new install. These situations can be checked in the ebuild as follows: if ! has_version 'app-admin/sudo'; then See the tracker bug 440214 for more details.
