sudo (1.6.8p12-5ubuntu2) gutsy; urgency=low

  * debian/rules: Configure less confusing default password prompt to (a)
    point out that it wants to know the user's password (instead of root's or
    whichever) and (b) that it is sudo which asks the question (since those
    prompts become really unintelligible if the command asks its own password,
    such as 'ssh', 'passwd', or 'mount -t cifs'). Do not modify
    --with-badpass-message though, since that breaks gksu.  Thanks to Marco
    Rodrigues, leoquant, and nxvl for the discussion and proposals.
    (LP: #8556)
