* debian/sudo.preinst:
  - avoid conffile prompt by checking for known default /etc/sudoers
    and if found installing the correct default /etc/sudoers file
    (LP: #690873)

debian/rules: The ubuntu-sudo-as-admin-successful.patch was taken
upstream by Debian however it requires a --enable-admin-flag configure

* SECURITY UPDATE: privilege escalation via '-g' option when using
  'user:group' in Runas_Spec
  - debian/patches/CVE-2010-2956.patch: update match.c to verify both user
    and group match sudoers when using '-g'
  - CVE-2010-2956

37. By Jamie Strandboge on 2010-07-06

* Merge from debian unstable. Remaining changes:
 - debian/rules:
   - compile with --without-lecture --with-tty-tickets (Ubuntu specific)
   - install man/man8/sudo_root.8 (Ubuntu specific)
   - install apport hooks
 - debian/sudo-ldap.dirs, debian/sudo.dirs: add
   usr/share/apport/package-hooks
 - debian/patches/ubuntu-sudo-as-admin-successful.patch: adjust sudo.c so
   that if the user successfully authenticated and he is in the 'admin'
   group, then create a stamp ~/.sudo_as_admin_successful. Our default bash
   profile checks for this and displays a short intro about sudo if the flag
   is not present
* Dropped the following, now included upstream:
  - fix for CVE-2010-1163
  - fix for CVE-2010-0426
  - debian/sudo.postinst, debian/sudo-ldap.postinst: update description to
    match behavior in sudoers file
  - don't install init script. Debian moved to /var/lib/sudo from
    /var/run/sudo, so Ubuntu's tmpfs usage won't clean those out
    automatically any more, so we now need the initscript.
