Currently without any changes to my setup... Only one user after upgrade can be granted sudo privileges in my ubuntu installation.
Therefore adding sudo privileges only works once after upgrading my machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pam in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1766325 Title: sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): conversation failed Status in pam package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in sudo package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello. I experience a bug after upgrading from Ubuntu 17.10 to 18.04. The bug seems to be a regression because what I am trying to do was working with Ubuntu 17.10 and stopped working after the upgrade. Here is the problem: I have 2 users on my system. One is the user that is created during installation, named zzz. The other user I added later, named abc. Both users have passwords set. According to passwd the password for user abc is a locked password (L) (whatever that means). Now I am logged into user zzz and want to execute a program as user abc without entering the password of user abc. Until Ubuntu 17.10 this was done like this: "sudo -i -u abc /usr/bin/java -version". To get that working I had to add this via visudo: "zzz ALL=(abc) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/java" Now this seems to be ignored. Instead the terminal is asking for the password of user abc. I see this in /var/log/auth.log: "sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): conversation failed".
