Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sudo

Hello,

I added myself to the sudo group:
   sudo usermod -a -G sudo myusername
then used 'visudo' to modify /etc/sudoers according to the instructions in the 
comments
(i.e. uncommented %sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL line)

then logged out and logged in again. But 'sudo' keeps asking for
password.

my karmic was installed from mini.iso image.

$ sb_release -rd
