I'm using a 4 years old system, and if I change that line, log out and |
| 24 |
in again, it changes the env variable and everything works (that means |
| 25 |
the behavior is probably caused by your configuration). If visudo is |
| 26 |
still using that configuration, maybe that's because some |
| 27 |
configuration file has precedence over environment variables. In that |
| 28 |
case, you gotta find that file and change it. |

Not an easy task, anyway... I just did an "grep -r /bin/nano" in /etc. |
| 31 |
LOL, I know there's a better way, I'm just too lazy to look for it... |
