Bug Description
Jaunty Jackalope Kubuntu, daily build from around January 23, 2009.
Jaunty Kubuntu was installed using the alternate installer, the /home partition was kept from the previous installations. The first user was created during the setup. This first user could login, but could not perform any adminstrative tasks because he was not in the sudoers list. Manual correction ("visudo") resolved the problem.

Updated a Jaunty install to a new kernel image (usage?), viz 2.6.28-8-generic just this morning at 04:50 UTC 13 March 2009. Has removed my normal user from sudoers, so this seems to affect more than the first install. I'm sure if I could remember my root password, I could manually correct this. I'd append some logs, namely exactly which packages were updated, but I can't read them currently. Will try to do so once I get the situation resolved.
