Subject: [DNG] visudo not installed or installable? Experience on new install
Hi,

I just installed Devuan Daedalus last night. I want to add my personal
account to sudoers, and the very README the sudo package installed in
/etc/sudoers.d says to use visudo to avoid common errors.

But visudo is not installed. And there's no visudo package. And an
apt-cache search finds nothing for visudo ....

In my opinion, sub-optimal.

Also, I have a system with both an on-motherboard and a PCI graphics
chipset. I have a monitor plugged into each. On install, the system
couldn't start X until I unplugged the monitor from the PCI card, which
uses an AMD chipset. I had to manually install firmware-amd-graphics
before I could use both monitors. I happen to be a person who used
Debian for decades, that wasn't a big deal, but a new user would have
been very confused.

Thanks for any help with finding visudo.
