To quote a previous message of mine:
But that's a really technical issue. My main issue is with the fact that
my package needs to edit /etc/sudors . Works? sure. Elegant? no. Will
work for the live CD. Will fail later in real life.
That is: any better Debian-blessed way for a package to edit
/etc/sudoers ? I prefer to put my changes in packages and not in
"one-time" scripts, as this makes them also usable outside of the
specific environment of debian-live. And the whole point of Debian-Live
is to use unmodified Debian.
