After recent updates (past week) yaourt started giving me problems. When using yaourt it prompts me for sudo password but it does not seem to use my sudo configuration.
I get this:
[sudo] password for root:
[sudo] password for root:
Password:
su: Authentication failure
Password:
When entering mine or root's password I just get prompt again. The last password is for su, which when I enter root's works.
It seems sudo is not using /etc/sudoers configuration either, as I have things like insults enabled and it used to work previously.
Any reason for this?
sudo works fine otherwise.

Make sure you don't have e.g. any aliases which could be confusing matters. Please post your /etc/sudoers file.

Moving to AUR Issues...

adding SUDONOVERIF=1 (note: this is not a typo and it should not have "Y" at the end) to /etc/yaourtrc finally solved my problem regarding this.
Thanks for links 2ManyDogs.
