Error on :SudoWrite about vim-eunuch HOT 8 CLOSED

I found the solution. This is not the plugin issue. Just need set SUDO_ASKPASS environment variable. In KDE I use ksshaskpass.

I have the same issue.

Same here.

from vim-eunuch.

it's using 'sudo -e' vs directly 'sudo', so looks a bit complex or req more config if so..
// ':Mkdir' worked perfectly at least.. :)

from vim-eunuch.

SUDO_ASKPASS or the appropriate sudo.conf config is the correct solution. sudo -e isn't any different from sudo when it comes to this.

from vim-eunuch.

um.. yes, i mean it req extra config actually.. though perhaps not directly relevant..
e.g:

:SudoWrite
Error detected while processing BufWriteCmd Autocommands for "/home/shane/x.txt":
sudo: x.txt: editing files in a writable directory is not permitted

from vim-eunuch.

Separate issue from password entry, but I must admit I was not aware of the writable directory limitation of sudo -e. It would be easy enough to use tee directly in that case, but do we really want to? It seems like a valid security restriction.

from vim-eunuch.

yes, but not sure if it was new (new security restriction), i used to use 'sudo tee' directly actually..
looks had to set a dirchecker setting into sudo config to bypass it, or sth else..
// anyway what i meant was: if using 'sudo -e' then there were some extra config needed to handle, or ':SudoWrite' actually was not working..
// anyway had much/enough security check actually was good, since we are doing 'root' authority.. it's risky.. but just not sure if ':SudoWrite' was able to handle all those security check.. :)
