Bug Description

The problem was first noticed when it caused these errors:

http://10.246.72.9/5.11.0-1007.7-oracle/hirsute-linux-oracle-oracle-amd64-5.11.0-VM.Standard2.1-ubuntu_qrt_kernel_security/ubuntu_qrt_kernel_security/results/ubuntu_qrt_kernel_security.test-kernel-security.py/debug/ubuntu_qrt_kernel_security.test-kernel-security.py.DEBUG.html

and Sam has narrowed it down to a problem running sudo commands, which all fail with the error:

Alias "xxxxx" already defined
