me grab the source of the official sudo package and the modified one and
run a diff between them. ;-)
$ diff -r sudo-1.7.4p4/ sudo-trinity-1.7.2p7/ | wc -l

Would it be possible to have kde-core-trinity depend on sudo, and to
have sudo-trinity conflict with sudo and provide sudo?
This would allow people to retain Debian's sudo if they prefer.
