Describe the bug:

Path /usr/local/bin missing while running sudo
This is resolved by running visudo and editing this line

Defaults secure_path = /sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

Add :/usr/local/bin

Steps To Reproduce:

• added a new user
• added user to wheel group
• edited wheel to allow sudo without pw prompt
• Installed K3s: on Rocky Linux
• sudo k3s kubectl get nodes
• the k3s command could not be found

Expected behavior:

[k3suser@k3s ~]$ sudo k3s kubectl get nodes
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION
k3s.domain.net Ready control-plane,master 3h38m v1.29.4+k3s1

Actual behavior:

the k3s command could not be found

Additional context / logs:

[x86Since8088]

The install script could provide a warning and instructions to resolve.

Validating sudo's path is somewhat outside the realm of what k3s is expected to manage.
