The problem I would like to solve is dpkg interrupting upgrades when
/etc/sudoers is updated, because the file used in Debian's images is modified.
Using sudoers.d is indeed the good solution, that I overlooked when inspecting
the Ubuntu image.

root@ip-10-148-5-107:/etc# cat sudoers.d/90-cloudimg-ubuntu 
# ubuntu user is default user in cloud-images.
# It needs passwordless sudo functionality.
ubuntu ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL

Cheers,
