How? May be I'm wrong, but: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
Defaults editor=/usr/bin/vim, !env_editor |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
is only to use this list with visudo. And does not prevents sudo from |
| 13 |
removing EDITOR from environment. Or did you mean something else? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Also from man sudoers: "The default is the path to vi on your system." |
| 16 |
Should we drop this from sources then? Or leave this broken on systems |
| 17 |
with only nano installed? |
