Now that I think about it, this would occur only after
"timestamp_timeout"
has expired and 'sudo' is about to prompt for the password.
No, it does also happen when "timestamp_timeout" has not yet expired.
It happened again and when I restarted the replacement of the package
pkg_rr was working on when it failed, it did not ask for
authentication.
