Title:
  user prompted for sudo changes on upgrade in ec2/uec image

Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “sudo” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “sudo” source package in Natty:
  In Progress
Status in “sudo” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: sudo

  This is a much less sever bug than bug 761689.

  Instead of *not* being prompted, and being permanently locked out of
  sudo, the user is shown a prompt asking what to do about hte
  differences in sudo configuration, and suggesting they use sudo.d.

  In the limited case of EC2/UEC images, we can recognize that they're
  using an unmodified sudo file and appropriately write a sudo.d entry
  for them.

  == natty release note ==
  When upgrading a UEC Image to 11.04 on EC2 or UEC, the user will be prompted regarding changes to local file /etc/sudoers.  Selecting "Accept the maintainer's version" will result in the 'ubuntu' user losing access to sudo.  Instead, select the default response "keep your currently-installed version" (N).
