Artix Linux Forum

There is an AUR package for that

if it possible the team could maintain another implementation of sudo called doas?

@Glats

Do not know what this doas-thingy needs to do for you, but is it possible  su  provides a solution  like so :

Code: [Select]

su -c 'TheCommandYouWantExecuted'

Upon ENTER :  passwd-prompt pops up after which  command executes ; upon completion the credentials are dropped and you are returned to your original position in the hierarchy.
If no user is specified root is assumed.

if it possible the team could maintain another implementation of sudo called doas?

The short answer is no. Probably disappointing for you, but that is the bottom line.
We are a small team, and the request involves SELinux as a depend, so no, no time left for such thing.
The package requested is also not widely used that is justifies to be in the repos.

If you don't get it working from the AUR, perhaps start a thread in the forum's AUR section asking for help.

Seeing this security issue about sudo, if it possible the team could maintain another implementation of sudo called doas?
doas is a secure replacement of sudo and was created by the same team behind openbsd. This team always has focused on security software like: libressl, openssh, etc.
To put point in favor, in fact, voidlinux is maintain this program in its main repo. this program it's way more simple than sudo in many ambit like configuration and development.
However isn't an official port from openbsd but it try to attempt the more close possible to the original program.

You can install opendoas and it works pretty well and is in the standard repos for artix.

The only thing bugged me is that yay use sudo
