Title:
  Please merge sudo 1.9.5p2-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  This requires a merge because there are changes in the Ubuntu version
  not present in the Debian version.

  ------ Justification of patches removed from debian/patches/series ------
  * typo-in-classic-insults.diff
    * This exact patch is present in upstream version 1.9.5p2-2
  * paths-in-samples.diff
    * This exact patch is present in upstream version 1.9.5p2-2
  * Whitelist-DPKG_COLORS-environment-variable.diff

  * CVE-2021-23239.patch
    * This exact patch is NOT present in upstream version 1.9.5p2-2
      * The patch is made to address a vulnerability wherein users
        were able to gain information about what directories existed
        that they should not have had access to.
      * Upstream version 1.9.5p2-2 addresses this vulnerability using
        the function sudo_edit_parent_valid in the file src/sudo_edit.c
      * Since the vulnerability is addressed in upstream version
        1.9.5p2-2 it can safely be dropped
  * CVE-2021-3156-1.patch
    * The code from this patch already exitsts in upstream

  Changes:

      Remaining changes:

      - debian/rules: stop shipping init scripts, as they are no longer
        necessary.
      - debian/rules:
        + compile with --without-lecture --with-tty-tickets --enable-admin-flag
        + install man/man8/sudo_root.8 in both flavours
        + install apport hooks

          environment files. Reading ~/.pam_environment is not permitted due
          to security reasons.
      - debian/sudoers:
        + also grant admin group sudo access
        + include /snap/bin in the secure_path
