Bug Description

Debian doesn't compile with this flag, imho on desktop it is useless and clutters my home folder with .sudo-as-admin-succesful, at least move it to xdg-cache or something.

It's not useless, it is used by /etc/bash.bashrc to know whether or not to print the help message if the user has not used sudo before.

As for moving the file to xdg-cache, please file a bug with the upstream developers here:
https://bugzilla.sudo.ws/index.cgi

Once the bug has been filed, please attach it here.

Thanks!
