52. By Marc Deslauriers on 2011-11-20

* Merge from debian/testing, remaining changes:
  - debian/patches/keep_home_by_default.patch:
    + Set HOME in initial_keepenv_table. (rebased for 1.8.3p1)
  - debian/patches/enable_badpass.patch: turn on "mail_badpass" by default:
    + attempting sudo without knowing a login password is as bad as not
      being listed in the sudoers file, especially if getting the password
      wrong means doing the access-check-email-notification never happens
      (rebased for 1.8.3p1)
  - debian/rules:
    + compile with --without-lecture --with-tty-tickets (Ubuntu specific)
    + install man/man8/sudo_root.8 (Ubuntu specific)
    + install apport hooks
    + The ubuntu-sudo-as-admin-successful.patch was taken upstream by
      Debian however it requires a --enable-admin-flag configure flag to
      actually enable it.
  - debian/sudoers:
    + grant admin group sudo access
  - debian/sudo-ldap.dirs, debian/sudo.dirs:
    + add usr/share/apport/package-hooks
  - debian/sudo.preinst:
    + avoid conffile prompt by checking for known default /etc/sudoers
      and if found installing the correct default /etc/sudoers file
