Insider the debian vm launched by Orb I am getting this.

❯ sudo apt update
sudo: /etc/sudo.conf is owned by uid 501, should be 0
sudo: /etc/sudo.conf is owned by uid 501, should be 0
sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 501, should be 0
sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
sudo: error initializing audit plugin sudoers_audit

Who knows whats up? Version 2.2.1 (20628)

workaround:

orb -m $MACHINE -u root

then

chown root:root /etc/sudo.conf

that is what I did, however, this machine has been running fine for like a year and survived many orb updates. chowning the sudo.conf forced me to set a password for my non root user. So something went belly up with some update, I assume
