Some questions to consider: 1) Are we too far into the F10 process for this? 2) How does this interact with the default PolicyKit configuration? 3) How do other important OS vendors use sudo, is there a chance to harmonize a bit? 4) Does it still make sense to have a root password (and root account)? I don't know the answers to these offhand - my initial thought on #2 is that it would make sense to have PolicyKit use the user's password for authentication if they're wheel (and ideally not prompt for passwords at all for OS updates, maybe a few others). On #4 I don't think it makes sense to have root by default if we do this, but that requires anaconda changes. -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
