Most distributions package OpenDoas Debian Fedora Arch

so I have a slight heartburn with this one. Since there is no way we could drop practically sudo in favor of this.... we're adding MORE setuid binaries and lines of code, rather than shrinking our totals.. yeah I get it that Doas is smaller than sudo.. but it's not zero lines.

I would prefer we ship fewer, not more setuid binaries (polkit etc) ... adding semi duplicate functionality then is a step away from that, not towards it.

This package is not very important for my daily workflow and if you don't want to bother adding it that's fine but I just want it in the repos not necessarily installed by default - that's like saying you shouldn't have gnome web in the repos because Firefox is in the repos.

once we add it we're on the hook for the security (updates) of it... even if it isn't in the default install... and things not in default/popular installs generally bitrot quicker making it worse not better if there's setuid stuff there

and yes that is why we try insane hard as well to keep to 1, well maintained and easy to update web browser.
