Could you please provide more info on this? On a sid box I already have the version of sudo including the fix (1.6.8p12-1), but I'm unable to reproduce the behaviour you are reporting, thus I'm tagging the bug as "unreproducible". Details of my tests follow. I tried both running "sudo -s" (as root) and "sudo vim" (as a user who has the permission to run "/usr/bin/vim" via sudo). In the former case "$HOME" is set correctly to "/root", in the latter case vim starts properly without exhibiting any of the problems you reported. Thanks for the bug report.
