I don't think sudo should be a dependency.
It only is a dependency on distributions that use sudo in their core packages such as Ubuntu.
Also, why does trinity have it's own sudo? I'd think it should be able to find it in $PATH?
Look up the sudo RPATH "feature". Basically if the application is not present in /usr/bin or a handful of other hardcoded directories sudo won't find it.
What are the trinity executables that really need to run with sudo?
(I have no /opt/trinity/sbin and apps in /opt/trinity/bin may be run with sudo `which ...`.)
What come to mind right away are some of the kdeadmin stuff, such as KUser, which lets you add/remove/modify users and groups.
I'm sure there are others, but I can't think of them right now.
