sudo crew,
I am studying how sudo handles the environment and have a couple of
question about env_keep. The man page says there are no default
members to env_keep, but when I look at the source code I see an array
called "initial_keepenv_table" that looks like a list of default
members.
Now to me it does not make sense to have a env_delete list and a
env_keep list. What do you do with it to if it is not on either list:
Dont keep it _AND_ Dont delete it? Anyway, there must be something I
am missing because I am sure that these features made sense to someone
otherwise they would not have been added.
I think confusion could be cleared up if someone has a set of examples
where they use env_* defaults to solve problems.
