Syntax of /etc/sudoers changed in sudo-1.6 packages

[Andreas Tille <tillea@rki.de>]

Hello,

after updating to the sudo-1.6 package in potato my /etc/sudoers
file became invalid.  When trying to edit it with visudo I
get strange error messages in each of its lines.  Also the
lines which I copied newly from man 5 sudoers are claimed to
be invalid.

Could anybody face this problem, too.

If there would be a change in the configuration file a
note should be printed while installing the package.
In this case I would file a bug report.

Kind regards

         Andreas.
