Subject: manual config uses wrong default for "sudo" question
I'm installing 0.0562 with 0.055 already installed. In my working 0.055 config, the answer to the "use sudo" question is NO. But when 0.0562 goes through the manual configuration questions based on previous settings, it offers YES as the default for the "use sudo?" question. (Note: I've noticed this bug for several releases, but just never reported it. Sorry) -- - - Martin 'Kingpin' Thurn

Thanks for the catch -- sudo always used it's own heuristics, ignoring any previous values (as for most of the programs section). Change 12202 fixes at least the sudo situation.
