Doc Type:	If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:	Previously, the libsudo_util.so library was included in the file list of the sudo-devel subpackage. As a consequence, sudo-devel had incorrect dependencies, which under certain circumstances caused upgrading the sudo packages to fail. To fix this bug, libsudo_util.so has been moved to the main sudo package. As a result, the sudo-devel package no longer requires the libsudo_util.so, and thus does not prevent upgrading the sudo packages.

Description Daniel Kopeček 2017-08-14 08:02:16 EDT

Description of problem:

The inclusion of the /usr/libexec/libsudo_util.so shared library introduced in a rebase (RHBA-2017:26879) to newer version of sudo caused an unintended dependency of the sudo-devel sub-package on the versioned part of the libsudo_util library residing in the main sudo package.

Since the previous sudo package didn't require the 32-bit counterpart of the main package to be installed when the 32-bit sudo-devel sub-package was being installed in a 64-bit environment, the update to the latest version of the sudo package causes conflicts preventing a successful upgrade in multilib environments.

As a solution, we should revert to the previous state of the -devel sub-package files section and include the new library in the main files section.
