[PRQ#52676] Deletion Request for sudo-is-doas
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 03 Mar '24

03 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sudo-is-doas [2]: Problematic symlink-only package. doas is not sudo; they behave differently e.g. (very importantly) when it comes to passing or not passing environment variables to the root environment. Downstream dependent applications should have explicit doas support, or the user has to do some additional setup to try to make it better compatible with sudo. There are already doas-sudo-shim packages on AUR that aim to do just that. No need to keep a dumber, less compatible alterative here (let alone one that lies in its pkgdesc about being 'more functional" than the latter, in which regard the opposite is true).
