By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Dan Dart 2011-12-06 15:55:54 CST
sudo, a standard package in at least Ubuntu, wants to be removed by trinity-sudo.

sudo-trinity should either not be a dependency or not try to remove regular sudo.

It looks like the required functionality to use the distribution-provided sudo was added in the past year or so, so this bug can finally be addressed for R14.0.

Specifically, a file can be placed in /etc/sudoers.d/ with the following contents:
Defaults secure_path=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/trinity/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/trinity/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

sudo-trinity should be changed to a metapackage that depends on sudo and provides the file mentioned above.

The only question is how far back this change can be applied; IIRC lucid and maverick do NOT provide this new directive and would need to use the old modified sudo-trinity package.

Marking as P1 and blocker as a solution is now available and must be implemented before R14.0 release.
