Branch: pkgsrc-2010Q4, Version: 1.7.4p5, Package name: sudo-1.7.4p5, Maintainer: kim

Sudo is a program designed to allow a sysadmin to give limited root
privileges to users and log root activity. The basic philosophy is to
give as few privileges as possible but still allow people to get their
work done.

   Log message:
   Update sudo package to 1.7.4p5.

   What's new in Sudo 1.7.4p5?

    * A bug has been fixed that would allow a command to be run without the
      user entering a password when sudo's -g flag is used without the -u flag.

    * If user has no supplementary groups, sudo will now fall back on checking
      the group file explicitly, which restores historic sudo behavior.

    * A crash has been fixed when sudo's -g flag is used without the -u flag
      and the sudoers file contains an entry with no runas user or group listed.

    * A bug has been fixed in the I/O logging support that could cause
      visual artifacts in full-screen programs such as text editors,.

    * A crash has been fixed when the Solaris project support is enabled
      and sudo's -g flag is used without the -u flag.

    * Sudo no longer exits with an error when support for auditing is
      compiled in but auditing is not enabled.

    * Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.7.3 where the ticket file was not
      being honored when the "targetpw" sudoers Defaults option was \ 
enabled.

    * The LOG_INPUT and LOG_OUTPUT tags in sudoers are now parsed correctly.

    * A crash has been fixed in "sudo -l" when sudo is built with auditing
      support and the user is not allowed to run any commands on the host.
