Description Patrick Schoenfeld 2008-11-21 04:20:48 MST

Hi,

the following problem was reported by a Debian user:

CMND_ALIASES are not properly expanded in the output of sudo -l.
Instead the name of the appropriate CMND_ALIAS is printed.

More information (and a concrete use case) to be found in the URL.
The problem is easy reproducible and happens with 1.6.9. I had a quick look at the 1.7.x changes and didn't see a reason why this should be fixed therein.

This is fixed in 1.7.0 with the new parser.  It will not be fixed in the 1.6.x branch.
