Here is my approach for a fix. It takes the known default /etc/sudoers and if one of them is found overwrites with the new default. This ensures we don't get a prompt (and also that we will not get one in the future unless the user really modifies the conffile).
If the file is modified then the dpkg conffile prompt is triggered, but thats fine, the user modified it afterall. ** Patch added: "My approach for a fix" https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/690873/+attachment/1936296/+files/sudo_1.7.4p4-5ubuntu5.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/690873 Title: latest natty sudo upgrade prompts for conffile update and potentially removes %admin from /etc/sudoers -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
