    Sudo and doas are 1000x (in loc) more complex than they need to be for destop pc. Yet they are always default installed and some tools even expect them.

      I await your much improved solution then. It sounds so simple, I bet you knock it out over the weekend, right?

        Actually, i thought about merging rdo and ssu, both a bit over 100 loc in C. Yes, it would be feasible over a weekend. I just have a lot of other stuff i need to do first.

          Found ssu here : https://github.com/illiliti/ssu Can’t find rdo. What is it ?

        doas is relativly simple (a few hundred LOC), especially compared to sudo. The main benefit of run0 over doas is that it isn’t a SUID binary, they are similary complex.

          Actually it’s close to 2k lines of code (1,946 to be exact). But yes, it’s certainly a lot simpler than sudo (132k).

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
