Description bob.schwartz 2022-06-07 10:00:25 MDT

On RHEL 7, when running "yum check-update", yum will hang if running in a sudo shell and log_subcmds is enabled.  Issue happens with both 1.9.10 and 1.9.11.

I can't reproduce this in a CentOS 7 VM.  I did, however, find a bug that was preventing the RHEL 7 packages on sudo.ws from using ptrace for log_subcmds.  There's a good chance that using ptrace instead of LD_PRELOAD will fix this problem.

Can you try sudo 1.9.11p1?  That should use ptrace for log_subcmds instead of LD_PRELOAD.
