This has already been patched I believe, there was a sudo update in the last couple of days.
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

Midnighter, I don't understand your post. Sorry I'm French and sometimes some English sentences can be a little foreign to me...
But this post, like said in the title, is for info. In fact, many people/Linux users think Linux is a wonderful world, developers are almost gods and we must venerate them, everything is good in Linux and Windows is simply bad and the evil etc... You see the idea, right? So I think highlight the problems, errors, stupidity or other like this is an information provided to put back things in place, if you see what I mean. Sometimes/often this is welcome to open eyes at least.
