Package: sudo Version: 1.6.8p7-1.3 Severity: grave sudo <x-app> no longer works due to XAUTHORITY not being forwarded. Futher, adding in:
Defaults env_keep += XAUTHORITY makes no difference whatsoever. It appears you have to turn on env_reset to have any hope of getting this to work. But then env_check no longer works, so how do you pass things like LANG? AFAICT, it seems the new version of sudo in stable has broken the ability to run X11 apps under sudo. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (100, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686-smp Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages sudo depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libpam-modules 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l sudo recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
