Got this bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...do/+bug/234727
(Sudo seg-fault)
Someone's made a .patch to fix it but I can't figure out how to install it.
Help Please

I never got a chance to install some important software
Some one on the Ubuntu forums posted this
__________
Code:
cd ~/Desktop
apt-get source sudo
cd sudo*
wget
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21261955/sudo.patch -O- | patch -p1
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
If it fails to build because of missing build-deps, you'll have to reboot into
recovery mode and go into "Root Terminal with Networking".
Code:
apt-get build-dep sudo
You will also require the use of
recovery mode to install the application too.
Code:
cd /home/
username/Desktop/
dpkg -i sudo*deb

------------------------------
But it didn't work as explained here
When I boot to the recovery Menu there is no "Root Terminal with Networking Option"
apt-get source sudo Returns this
mmlinux@mmlinux:~/Desktop$ apt-get source sudo
