[Bug 2122414] [NEW] Ansible times out after BECOME password request

[Athos Ribeiro]

Public bug reported:

When using ansible with a site or a task using "become: yes", ansible
will prompt for the password (forwarded to sudo) before running.

When doing so with sudo-rs, after the password is provided by the user,
ansible hangs and then throws the following error:

"Timed out waiting for become success or become password prompt"

When setting sudo.ws as the default with update-alternatives, ansible
proceeds as expected after the password is provided.
