- update to 1.8.9p3
- set secure_path to /usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
- changes since 1.8.8:
  * Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.8.9 that prevented the tty name
    from being resolved properly on Linux systems.  Bug #630.
  * Updated config.guess, config.sub and libtool to support the ppc64le
    architecture (IBM PowerPC Little Endian).
  * Fixed a problem with gcc 4.8's handling of bit fields that could
    lead to the noexec flag being enabled even when it was not
    explicitly set.
  * Reworked sudo's main event loop to use a simple event subsystem
    using poll(2) or select(2) as the back end.
  * It is now possible to statically compile the sudoers plugin into
    the sudo binary without disabling shared library support.  The
    sudo.conf file may still be used to configure other plugins.
  * Sudo can now be compiled again with a C preprocessor that does
    not support variadic macros.
  * Visudo can now export a sudoers file in JSON format using the
    new -x flag.
  * The locale is now set correctly again for visudo and sudoreplay.
  * The plugin API has been extended to allow the plugin to exclude
    specific file descriptors from the "closefrom" range.
  * There is now a workaround for a Solaris-specific problem where
    NOEXEC was overriding traditional root DAC behavior.
  * Add user netgroup filtering for SSSD. Previously, rules for
    a netgroup were applied to all even when they did not belong
    to the specified netgroup.
  * On systems with BSD login classes, if the user specified a group
    (not a user) to run the command as, it was possible to specify
    a different login class even when the command was not run as the (forwarded request 213857 from vitezslav_cizek)
