Comment on Bringing Memory Safety to sudo and su

Comments

Another tool getting reimplemented in Rust under a weak license.

Do people want to ruin the Linux Eco system or what? It only takes on distro to close its modified source(backports, bugfixes etc) for the entire Eco system to start to crack.

Don't worry, there will be at least one distro using C and exclude Rust completely, or at least I'd hope so. Too bad the Linux kernel has Rust in it.

The problem isn't the language, its the license.
