Package: libsss-sudo
Version: 1.12.5-1
Severity: normal
Control: affects -1 sudo

As reported in

  * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sssd/+bug/1249777
  * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=879633

"libsss-sudo" breaks sudo's default entry in such way that sudo sends "*** 
SECURITY information" email with "problem with defaults entries" on every 
invocation of `sudo`.

On my system `sudo` is actively used by several services so I'm getting 
hundred (or more) of such emails to root's inbox every hour.

Uninstalling "libsss-sudo" stopped flood of emails.
