Do you have this problem with the sudo included in 5.2?

This is a problem with the initscripts package.  The rc.sysinit file is
attempting to remove /var/run/*/*, but /var/run/sudo/{someuser} is a directory.

Comment 3 Nalin Dahyabhai 2000-02-07 12:11:59 UTC
A workaround has been added for initscripts-4.92 and later.  There's
probably a cleaner way to do it, though.
