Why not opendoas?

[rustravyc]

Question about the base system: has the team ever considered moving to opendoas as the default privilege escalation tool? Since it’s much more lightweight and follows the 'do one thing and do it well' mantra, it seems like a perfect fit for Void. Is it just a matter of compatibility/convenience for new users, or is there a deeper technical reason to stick with sudo?

Sadly, this is already closed. Probably not so much interest in this case. 😢

I also believe it shouldn't come with a privilege escalation tool by default. It is not necessary to install nor operate the base system.

FWIW, some scripts depend on sudo in particular. The main example I can think of is distrobox, which would need either nopasswd or sudo's persist feature to work reasonably.
