- update to 1.8.13 * The examples directory is now a subdirectory of the doc dir to conform to Debian guidelines. Bug #682. * Fixed a compilation error for siglist.c and signame.c on some systems. Bug #686 * Weak symbols are now used for sudo_warn_gettext() and sudo_warn_strerror() in libsudo_util to avoid link errors when -Wl,--no-undefined is used in LDFLAGS. The --disable-weak-symbols configure option can be used to disable the user of weak symbols. * Fixed a bug in sudo's mkstemps() replacement function that prevented the file extension from being preserved in sudoedit. * A new mail_all_cmnds sudoers flag will send mail when a user runs a command (or tries to). The behavior of the mail_always flag has been restored to always send mail when sudo is run. * New "MAIL" and "NOMAIL" command tags have been added to toggle mail sending behavior on a per-command (or Cmnd_Alias) basis. * Fixed matching of empty passwords when sudo is configured to use passwd (or shadow) file authentication on systems where the crypt() function returns NULL for invalid salts. * The "all" setting for listpw and verifypw now works correctly with LDAP and sssd sudoers. * The sudo timestamp directory is now created at boot time on platforms that use systemd. * Sudo will now restore the value of the SIGPIPE handler before executing the command. * Sudo now uses "struct timespec" instead of "struct timeval" for time keeping when possible. If supported, sudoedit and visudo now use nanosecond granularity time stamps. * Fixed a symbol name collision with systems that have their own SHA2 implementation.

In the default (ie unconfigured) configuration sudo asks for root password. This allows to use an ordinary user account for administration of a freshly installed system. When configuring sudo, please make sure to delete the two following lines: Defaults targetpw # ask for the password of the target user i.e. root %users ALL=(ALL) ALL # WARNING! Only use this together with 'Defaults targetpw'!
