Summary: sudo defaults to nano when upstream would use vi
Product: Codex
Version: stable grimoire
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: utils
AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: jblosser-smgl AT firinn.org


# gaze BUILD sudo
EDITOR=`which ${EDITOR%% *} 2>/dev/null` ||
EDITOR=`which nano` &&
OPTS="$OPTS --with-editor=$EDITOR" &&
default_build


This does not equal sticking to upstream defaults, which would default to vi.
This should be changed to at least not passing --with-editor if $EDITOR isn't
set, and should probably prompt the user to either pass $EDITOR or use $EDITOR
at runtime or just use the default (which would be vi).
