Package: sudo
Version: 1.6.9p17-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

The manpage sudoers(7) has two entries for "exempt_group" option:
>       Strings that can be used in a boolean context:
>
> exempt_group
>       Users in this group are exempt from password and PATH
>       requirements.  This is not set by default.
[..]
> exempt_group
>       Users in this group are exempt from password and PATH
>       requirements.  On Debian systems, this is set to the group
>       ’sudo’ by default.

The first entry is wrong.

Also, I think it would be nice to have "exempt_group=sudo" in the
default /etc/sudoers.

Thanks,

Franklin
