This is the first stable release of sudo-rs! To easily install it without needing to install the entire Rust toolchain, we provide binaries (attached below). You can use the provided tar balls to install sudo-rs without removing your existing, original sudo installation. To install sudo-rs, simply extract the provided tar balls and put the files in your /usr/local hierarchy, for example by running

sudo tar -C /usr/local -xvf sudo-0.2.0.tar.gz

Sudo-rs will use your existing /etc/sudoers configuration, but if you create a /etc/sudoers-rs file, it will read that instead. Note that sudo-rs does not implement all features of the original sudo, please check the README for more information on what is and is not supported. You can also find instructions on compiling sudo-rs yourself.

We will be working with popular Linux distributions to provide an easier installation path through the regular package managers.
