LONDON — First things, first. Chill out. Yes, Ubuntu 26.04, the next long-term support of Ubuntu, will have sudo-rs, a version of sudo written in memory-safe Rust. No, it’s not going to replace good-old C-based sudo. They’ll both be in there. Breathe. Relax.
No, seriously. It’s already in Ubuntu 25.10. It’s been working just fine for me. If you don’t trust it, you can control which version you use with the command:
|
|
update–alternatives —config |
