RE: Strange issue: sudo: effective uid is not 0, is sudo installed setuid root?
@Xenon

plugin.xbianconfig error (files missing) is ok: new version of package has files at /usr, older still at /home. within /home xbian:xbian ownership is desired. it was listed just in case you would have -dev version installed already.

glad to hear that it was ok. reason is clear, mistyped "sudo chown -R xbian /" instead of (./). normally I would say user error (and with this definition "user error" I also include any 3rd party addons/scripts with bug) but easily could be programmer error with such typo in official package's install/maintenance scripts.

I remember I was already checking all scripts for XBian's regular packages - all "chown" calls one by one. generaly we use chown xbian:xbian in XBian's scripts (user and also group would have been changed) and on your XBian just user as owner was changed.

what we can do is just wait if this happens again, please let me know. I will look into your XBian then or ask for some specific logs. otherwise there is not much to do now. so stay in touch !
