Ubuntu 25.10 will replace the sudo command with sudo-rs, a new Rust rewrite designed to improve memory safety and security. What does this mean for users?

    sudo-rs supports less functionality than sudo. Some of this is by design.
    i.e. not 1:1 replacement.
    My use cases probably won’t be affected, but this will break things for some people.
