I had no problems until today with sudo in an AppVM. After installing stuff and rebooting, it has changed permissions. Sudo is still owned by root, but permissions are wrong. Sudo is —s–x–x.
Sudo works in my other AppVMs, it is just this one.
Is there a way I can force it to the normal permissions without having to lose that AppVM?
Also, would this —s be why my backup hangs and won’t complete?
Yeah. Now I think it is a Qubes specific issue I’m having. Following the steps you provided, I can alter the sudo owner/permissions in the template, and it changed in my other AppVMs. This particular AppVM still won’t work even though I restarted the templateVM and AppVM.
So it seems that my problem is not from the cause I thought (I thought it was the ownership/permissions of sudo).
