If you think it's all drivel then I would suggest you do not understand the issues raised or the opposing points of view of many. https://plus.google.com/+TheodoreTso/posts/4W6rrMMvhWU p.s. If you read far enough then please ignore the part about sudo being coarse grained as it allows a far more fine grained approach than the defaults of polkit and the rediculous pkexec with great intuitive power to the user too. In any other case proper specific priv sep should be used anyway. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
