This is why I don't run as sudo. I ran my bbS for some time and then tried to switch TO running sudo - and it broke most of my mods and Python stuff... sure, it can be done - but should be planned and implemented from day 1. Others, like niter3, seem to have it ironed out and working just fine, but for me I chose to use a bbs user w/o sudo acs.
