Having booted a VM with [Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.6-20220515.x86\_64.qcow2](http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8.6/images/Rocky-8-GenericCloud-8.6-20220515.x86_64.qcow2) (and checked the checksum was right) I found it it doesn’t have sudo. It’s available as a package but without sudo I can’t install it. I couldn’t find a mention of this in the release notes, is this deliberate or am I missing something?
