Colin suggested to strip whitespace and comments. I added code for this now to reduce the number of md5sums to check.
Please note that just removing "^#" is not good enough, "#include" and "#includedir" have special meanings, same for "#" in username context. I decided to therefore go with a very conservative approach and kill only ^#$ and ^#[[::space:]]+$ ** Attachment added: "improve approach" https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/690873/+attachment/1936847/+files/lala -- 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
