The following options were used to configure sudo for Debian GNU/Linux.
--with-all-insults
Include all the insults in the binary, won't be enabled unless turned
on in the sudoers file.
--with-pam
enable PAM support
--with-pam-login
enable specific PAM session for sudo -i
--with-fqdn
expect fully qualified hosts in sudoers
--with-logging=syslog
--with-logfac=authpriv
Where logging information goes.
--with-env-editor
--with-editor=/usr/bin/editor
Honor the EDITOR and VISUAL environment variables. If they are not
present, default to the preferred systemwide default editor.
--with-exampledir=/usr/share/doc/sudo(-ldap)/examples
Where sudo examples are installed
--with-timeout=15
--with-password-timeout=0
--with-passprompt="[sudo] password for %p: "
Allow 15 minutes before a user has to re-type their passord, versus
the sudo usual default of 5. Never time out while waiting for a
password to be typed, this is important to Debian package developers
using 'dpkg-buildpackage -rsudo'. Make it clear which password is
requested.
--with-tty-tickets
use a different ticket file for each tty
--without-lecture
don't print lecture for first-time sudoer
--disable-root-mailer
Don't run the mailer as root, run as the user
--with-sendmail=/usr/sbin/sendmail
Use Debian policy to know the location of sendmail instead of trying
to detect it at build time.
--with-rundir=/run/sudo
directory for sudo-specific files that do not
survive a system reboot, e.g. `/run/sudo'
--with-sssd --with-sssd-lib=/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)
enable SSSD support and configure where the sssd library lives
--enable-zlib=system
use Debian's zlib
--enable-admin-flag
Create a Ubuntu-style admin flag file
--with-selinux
enable SELinux support
--with-linux-audit

--enable-tmpfiles.d=/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d
Set the path to the systemd tmpfiles.d directory.

--with-ldap-conf-file=/etc/sudo-ldap.conf
--docdir=/usr/share/doc/sudo-ldap
