Hi, I use the following:

   (sudoers-file (local-file "/path/to/my/sudoers"))

As for the 'plain-file', IIUC it may be used like this (not tested):

   (sudoers-file (plain-file "sudoers" "<the contents of sudoers>"))

i.e., don't use "/etc/sudoers", just "sudoers" =E2=80=93 with that
"/gnu/store/=E2=80=A6-sudoers" file with the specified contents will be cre=
ated.
But again, I've never used 'plain-file' so I'm not absolutely sure.
