This bug was fixed in the package sudo - 1.6.9p10-1ubuntu1

---------------
sudo (1.6.9p10-1ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - debian/rules: Disable lecture, enable tty_tickets by default. (Ubuntu
      specific)
    - Add debian/sudo_root.8: Explanation of root handling through sudo.
      Install it in debian/rules. (Ubuntu specific)
    - sudo.c: If the user successfully authenticated and he is in the 'admin'
      group, then create a stamp ~/.sudo_as_admin_successful. Our default bash
      profile checks for this and displays a short intro about sudo if the
      flag is not present. (Ubuntu specific)
  * The password prompt asks for the target user's password now, not the
    invoking one's. (LP: #148498)

sudo (1.6.9p10-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * new upstream version
  * tweak default password prompt as %u doesn't make sense. Accept patch from
    Patrick Schoenfeld (recommend upstream accept it too) that adds a %p and
    uses it by default, closes: #454409
  * accept patch from Martin Pitt that adds a prerm making it difficult to
    "accidentally" remove sudo when there is no root password set on the
    system, closes: #451241
