This is what we already do in the HBAC plugin, this ports it to Sudo.
If a category (user, host, etc) is u'all' then we don't allow individual
members be added. Conversely if there are members we don't allow the
category be set to u'all'.

FreeIPA SUDO rules use --usercat/--groupcat to specify that rule
applies to all users or groups. Thus, sudorule-add-runasuser and
sudorule-add-runasgroup accept specific groups and users and do not
accept ALL reserved word.
The patch validates user and group passed to these commands and
reports appropriate errors when these are ALL.
Ticket #1496https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1496
1) Add sudorule docstring headline
2) Fix naming inconsistency in Sudo plugins help and summaries,
especially capitalization of Sudo objects - Sudo Rule, Sudo
Command and Sudo Command Group
3) Add missing summaries for sudorule-add-option and
sudorule-remove-option. To keep backward compatibility with
older clients, just print the missing summary with
output_for_cli(), don't expand Output.

This patch reverts the use of pygettext for i18n string extraction. It
was originally introduced because the help documentation for commands
are in the class docstring and module docstring.
Docstrings are a Python construct whereby any string which immediately
follows a class declaration, function/method declaration or appears
first in a module is taken to be the documentation for that
object. Python automatically assigns that string to the __doc__
variable associated with the object. Explicitly assigning to the
__doc__ variable is equivalent and permitted.
We mark strings in the source for i18n translation by embedding them
in _() or ngettext(). Specialized extraction tools (e.g. xgettext)
scan the source code looking for strings with those markers and
extracts the string for inclusion in a translation catalog.
It was mistakingly assumed one could not mark for translation Python
docstrings. Since some docstrings are vital for our command help
system some method had to be devised to extract docstrings for the
translation catalog. pygettext has the ability to locate and extract
docstrings and it was introduced to acquire the documentation for our
commands located in module and class docstrings.
However pygettext was too large a hammer for this task, it lacked any
fined grained ability to extract only the docstrings we were
interested in. In practice it extracted EVERY docstring in each file
it was presented with. This caused a large number strings to be
extracted for translation which had no reason to be translated, the
string might have been internal code documentation never meant to be
seen by users. Often the superfluous docstrings were long, complex and
likely difficult to translate. This placed an unnecessary burden on
our volunteer translators.
Instead what is needed is some method to extract only those strings
intended for translation. We already have such a mechanism and it is
already widely used, namely wrapping strings intended for translation
in calls to _() or _negettext(), i.e. marking a string for i18n
translation. Thus the solution to the docstring translation problem is
to mark the docstrings exactly as we have been doing, it only requires
that instead of a bare Python docstring we instead assign the marked
string to the __doc__ variable. Using the hypothetical class foo as
an example.
class foo(Command):
'''
The foo command takes out the garbage.
'''
Would become:
class foo(Command):
__doc__ = _('The foo command takes out the garbage.')
But which docstrings need to be marked for translation? The makeapi
tool knows how to iterate over every command in our public API. It was
extended to validate every command's documentation and report if any
documentation is missing or not marked for translation. That
information was then used to identify each docstring in the code which
needed to be transformed.
In summary what this patch does is:
* Remove the use of pygettext (modification to install/po/Makefile.in)
* Replace every docstring with an explicit assignment to __doc__ where
the rhs of the assignment is an i18n marking function.
* Single line docstrings appearing in multi-line string literals
(e.g. ''' or """) were replaced with single line string literals
because the multi-line literals were introducing unnecessary
whitespace and newlines in the string extracted for translation. For
example:
'''
The foo command takes out the garbage.
'''
Would appear in the translation catalog as:
"\n
The foo command takes out the garbage.\n
"
The superfluous whitespace and newlines are confusing to translators
and requires us to strip leading and trailing whitespace from the
translation at run time.
* Import statements were moved from below the docstring to above
it. This was necessary because the i18n markers are imported
functions and must be available before the the doc is
parsed. Technically only the import of the i18n markers had to
appear before the doc but stylistically it's better to keep all the
imports together.
* It was observed during the docstring editing process that the
command documentation was inconsistent with respect to the use of
periods to terminate a sentence. Some doc had a trailing period,
others didn't. Consistency was enforced by adding a period to end of
every docstring if one was missing.
* Wrap each topic description in _()
* Replace the use of if 'topic' in dir(module) with the more
Pythonic and efficient getattr(module, 'topic', None)
* Make sure to invoke unicode on the value returned from _()
otherwise you'll get a GettextFactory instance, not a string
* Clean up trailing whitespace errors
If you used sudorule-remove-runasgroup to remove a member that member
still appeared in the command output when --all was included (it isn't a
default attribute). This was due to post-processing to evaluate external
users/groups, the entry was actually updated properly.

The CSS text-transform sometimes produces incorrect capitalization,
so the code has been modified to use translated labels that already
contain the correct capitalization.
Ticket #1424
The object_name, object_name_plural and messages that use these
attributes have been converted to support translation. The label
attribute in the Param class has been modified to accept unicode
string.
Ticket #1435
The object_name attribute was used as both an identifier and a
label which sometimes require different values (e.g. hbacrule
vs. HBAC rule). The code that uses object_name as an identifier
has been changed to use the 'name' attribute instead. The values
of the object_name attribute have been fixed to become proper
labels.
Ticket #1217
The entity labels in the following locations have been fixed:
- search facet title: plural
- details facet title: singular
- association facet title: singular
- breadcrumb: plural
- adder dialog title: singular
- deleter dialog title: plural
Some entity labels have been changed into the correct plural form.
Unused file install/ui/test/data/i18n_messages.json has been removed.
Ticket #1249
Ticket #1387
A new attribute label_singular has been added to all entities which
contains the singular form of the entity label in lower cases except
for acronyms (e.g. HBAC) or proper nouns (e.g. Kerberos). In the Web
UI, this label can be capitalized using CSS text-transform.
The existing 'label' attribute is intentionally left unchanged due to
inconsistencies in the current values. It contains mostly the plural
form of capitalized entity label, but some are singular. Also, it
seems currently there is no comparable capitalization method on the
server-side. So more work is needed before the label can be changed.

Read access is denied to the sudo container for unauthenticated users.
This shared user can be used to provide authenticated access to the
sudo information.

The changes include:
* Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
* Add GPLv3+ license text
* Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think

re-based got pushed for some reason.
Use better description for group names in help and always prompt for members
When running <foo>-[add|remove]-member completely interactively it didn't
prompt for managing membership, it just reported that 0 members were
handled which was rather confusing.
This will work via a shell if you want to echo too:
$ echo "" | ipa group-add-member g1
This returns 0 members because nothing is read for users or group members.
$ echo -e "g1\nadmin\n" | ipa group-add-member
This adds the user admin to the group g1. It adds it as a user because
user membership is prompted for first.
