Comment (by jeremyhu@…):

 ein, you can make it such that only specific actions can be taken by
 specific users without a password.

 Also, 'su' always forces you to use a password, so if you want to use a
 password, then use 'sudo' *without* one.  I fail to see how *that* is
 causing you a problem.  Just switch from using su to using sudo.

 Re your gettext/python comment, that does not provide new information.
 The issue is strictly with the use of su and some ruid euid issue
 "somewhere" in bootstrap-land ... please just use sudo.
