This bug was fixed in the package sudo - 1.8.9p5-1ubuntu3
---------------
sudo (1.8.9p5-1ubuntu3) vivid; urgency=medium
* debian/patches/also_check_sudo_group.diff: also check the sudo group
in plugins/sudoers/sudoers.c to create the admin flag file. Leave the
admin group check for backwards compatibility. (LP: #1387347)

Title:
sudo doesn't check for sudo group
Status in “sudo” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
In Ubuntu, sudo is built with --enable-admin-flag to create the
~/.sudo_as_admin_successful after being run the first time.
At some point, to align with Debian, the group changed from "admin" to
"sudo", so this no longer works. A recent bash upload has fixed
printing the blurb about using sudo in the terminal, but since the
flag file isn't being created, the blurb always gets printed.
