Severity: wishlist

* Version         : 0.30
* Upstream Author : Joe Landman <landman@scalableinformatics.com>

Description: Sudo - Perl extension for running a command line sudo
 Sudo runs commands as another user, provided the system sudo
 implementation is setup to enable this. This does not allow
 running applications securely, simply it allows the programmer to
 run a program as another user (suid) using the sudo tools rather
 than suidperl. Suidperl is not generally recommended for secure
 operation as another user. While sudo itself is a single point tool
 to enable one user to execute commands as another sudo does not
 itself make you any more or less secure.
