This is a critical warning about certain prior versions of our sudo package.
A prior version was broken, in that it will remove /opt/csw/etc/sudoers
on pkgrm (upgrade)

If you normally use sudo, please make a copy of the sudoers file before
upgrading, and use a full root shell to do the upgrade, rather than
thorugh sudo.
We apologize for this mistake.

Please only upgrade, when you see the following sudo version or later
available at your mirror site:


 sudo-1.6.8p5,REV=2004.12.17
