After upgrade from 15.0, sudo seems to be broken. please help!

After upgrading to Leap 15.1 overnight, sudo has been rejecting my password, while su and by extension kdesu aren’t giving me any problems.
here’s what it looks like each time i’ve tried to use sudo:

> sudo echo hi
[sudo] password for root:  
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for root:  
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for root:  
sudo: unable to send audit message: Operation not permitted
sudo: PERM_ROOT: setresuid(0, -1, -1): Operation not permitted

I’d appreciate any help or advice in fixing this

Uninstall pam_kwallet (or put up with the bug).

And check out Bug 1133808.

that was it, thanks a bunch!

Glad to have helped.

I used pam_kwallet in Leap 15.0. But even there it broke things (such as “lightdm”). So I’m back to a gpg-encrypted kwallet with Leap 15.1.
