After successfully build Sudo 1.6.3p5 under Solaris 2.6, I am
encountering problems
when using sudo with commands that require spaces or wildcard character
as parameters.
For example:
The following command returns :
% sudo find . -name \* -print
find: bad option 1.5.4
find: path-list predicate-list
while the same arguments passed without sudo are successful:
% find . -name \* -print
...
./sudo-1.6.3p5/visudo.cat
./sudo-1.6.3p5/visudo.man.in
./sudo-1.6.3p5/visudo.pod
This symtom is not isolated to sudo-1.6.3p5 in that previous
releases built under Solaris 2.6 exhibit the same behavior
