Until yesterday my chef-client was working great. But today after forcing an install with
$ sudo chef-client
I get the error below, which looks like the sudo recipe is the main reason.
Btw, until yesterday I was running chef client 12.8, so maybe there is something here that I need to check.
I just updated from sudo cookbook 2.3 to 2.11 but I'm getting the same thing.
$ sudo -V
tells me that sudo is already installed so I'm not sure where is the error
sudo chef-client
