[Bug 1829609] [NEW] files in sudoers.d no longer being read or honored

[oshunluvr]

Public bug reported:

Previously reported bug not ever assigned:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...e/+bug/1584549

Currently using KDEneon User Edition LTS 18.04 fully updated.

No known entry format in /etc/sudoers.d/ appear to be read by sudoers
any longer. All files under /etc/sudoers.d/ are permissions 0440 and
root owned. visudo -c confirms the syntax passes the checks. Prior to
last month, files in suoders.d were read and worked IF you used the FQDM
and not the hostname (as should be allowed thus the prior bug report).
Some update must have broken the usage.

I have attempted the following formats in /etc/sudoers.d/apt;

stuart office.smith.lan = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt-
get,/usr/bin/apt,/usr/bin/add-apt-repository,/usr/bin/apt-add-repository

stuart office = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt-get,/usr/bin/apt,/usr/bin
/add-apt-repository,/usr/bin/apt-add-repository

stuart office.smith.lan = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt-get
stuart office.smith.lan = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt
stuart office.smith.lan = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/add-apt-repository
stuart office.smith.lan = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt-add-repository

stuart ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt-get,/usr/bin/apt,/usr/bin
/add-apt-repository,/usr/bin/apt-add-repository

ALL ALL= (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apt-get,/usr/bin/apt,/usr/bin/add-
apt-repository,/usr/bin/apt-add-repository

The first one above worked in 16.04. Prior to that (15.04) the second
one worked. I have tried all of these and none are honored.
