Title:
  Update sudo for proper support of netgroups

Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  sudo v1.8.16 has a bug that prevents it from working properly with
  netgroups.

  The main affected usage case that I'm aware of is when using FreeIPA
  to define host groups, and then using those host groups within sudo
  rules.

  It would appear that a release >=1.8.17 resolves the issue.
