[one-users] OpenNebula node package broke sudo?

[Jaime Melis]

Hi James,

terribly sorry for that, we've obviously tested that package and haven't
seen this before. I don't think any other user has reported this to the
mailing list before, so I think it might be an incompatibilty with your
local configuration of your sudoers and the one we ship.

What the OpenNebula package does is pretty simple: it installs a new file
called /etc/sudoers.d/opennebula which contains:
https://github.com/OpenNebula/one/blob/master/share/pkgs/CentOS/opennebula.sudoers

Once you have restored root privileges on the machine, could you please
send us the contents of /etc/sudoers and /etc/sudoers.d/opennebula. Ask
your administrator to make a backup of those broken sudoers files before
changing them and send them to us before fixing them. (Before sending them,
please review that you aren't sending anything sensitive to the mailing
list)

I would like to see also the list of opennebula packages you have
installed: $ rpm -qa | grep opennebula

regards,
Jaime
