Description of problem: Now that we're adding a checkbox to add users to the wheel group, and the Administrator bit in the GNOME user dialog does this as well. From https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=462161: We probably also want something similar for pam -- add "UGROUPS=wheel" to /etc/security/console.apps/config-util, and for any appropriate usermode-enabled apps which don't have that already. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): usermode-1.106.1-3.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Expected results: Additional info:
Thanks for your report. With sudo giving every member of wheel root privileges anyway, I suppose there's no point in delaying this change any further. Has anybody take care of the documentation of this change yet?
