"sudo" will normally report an error message about the binary or the
configuration file having the wrong permissions if that is the issue.
It will also report a different error message if the user is not allowed
to execute the requested command.
"sudo" throws away its root user status when it rea
"sudo tar xvzf *.tgz -C /" -> it seems this simply overwrote your
/etc/sudoers with a version from the unpacked tarballs.
** Changed in: sudo (Ubuntu)
