aura doesn't work with `doas`
i use doas instead of sudo (and opendoas-sudo, which symlink sudo to doas) this have been working forever for all of my programs (including pacman).
aura seem to be the only program that complain
$ aura -Au
aura >>= You cannot perform this operation without using sudo.
$ doas aura -Au
aura >>= As of makepkg v4.2, building as root is no longer possible.
Should be rewritten to ask permissions on demand, rather than in advance. Related: https://github.com/fosskers/aura/issues/675#issuecomment-733394408.
and/or giving users the ability to modify the sudo binary path to an arbitrary value in the configuration, or adding support for multiple ways to gain super user privileges, by choosing one of sudo, doas, or su in the configuration (this mean that aura have to manage that internally, the user doesn't have to prefix the command with sudo or doas or anything, like yay do it)
but i still prefer that it delay using superuser privileges until it's done building
Aura's Rust rewrite already does permission-on-demand, so this will be an autofix once that (version 4.0) is released.
Uhm, so for me the issue persists on AURA Version 3.2.7. Is this fix included?
The current Aura 3.x series doesn't support doas, but it won't matter once Aura 4 is released.

Do you have an estimate as to when will that be?
