[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] bug fix: "sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo".

[Paulo Vital]

The authorization code executes some sudo commands in backend to
check if the user used to login in Kimchi has permission to execute
privileged commands.

By default, sudo needs a TTY to be executed and when Kimchi is executed
as a service by systemd (systemctl start kimchid.service), it runs
disconnected from any TTY, and sudo returns an error and the message:
"sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo".

This patch sets in Kimchi service file for systemd the /dev/tty11 as
default TTY to execute the service.
