- update to sudo-1.8.3
  - Fixed expansion of strftime() escape sequences
    in the log_dir sudoers setting.
  - Esperanto, Italian and Japanese
    translations from translationproject.org.
  - Added --enable-werror configure option for gcc's
  -Werror flag.  - Visudo no longer
    assumes all editors support the +linenumber command line argument.
    It now uses a whitelist of editors known to support the option.
  - Fixed matching of network addresses when a netmask is specified but
    the address is not the first one in the CIDR block.
  - The configure script now check whether or not errno.h declares the
    errno variable. Previously, sudo would always declare errno itself
    for older systems that don't declare it in errno.h.
  - The NOPASSWD tag is now honored for denied commands too,
    which matches historic sudo behavior (prior to sudo 1.7.0).
  - Sudo now honors the DEREF
    setting in ldap.conf which controls how alias dereferencing is done
    during an LDAP search.
  - A symbol conflict with the
    pam_ssh_agent_auth PAM module that would cause a crash been
    resolved.
  - The inability to load a group provider plugin is no
    longer a fatal error.
  - A potential crash in the utmp handling
    code has been fixed.
  - Two PAM session issues have been resolved.
    In previous versions of sudo, the PAM session was opened as one
    user and closed as another. Additionally, if no authentication was
    performed, the PAM session would never be closed.
