Trouble with sudo?

Fresh installed Manjaro 20.2.1 Gnome:

journalctl -p err -b

Jan 16 15:24:48 manjaro sudo[1545]: pam_unix(sudo:auth): conversation failed
Jan 16 15:24:48 manjaro sudo[1545]: pam_unix(sudo:auth): auth could not identify password for [user]
Jan 16 15:24:48 manjaro sudo[1545]: pam_unix(sudo:auth): auth could not identify password for [user]
.
No trouble to use sudo - but why this warnings?

I’ve had this error to, I thought I fixed it. But I’ve chosen to ignore it.

Will this fix eventually break locale (=german)???
.
sudo -l
Passende Defaults-Einträge für (user) auf manjaro:
timestamp_timeout=30

Der Benutzer (user) darf die folgenden Befehle auf manjaro ausführen:
(ALL) ALL
(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/apply-locale
(ALL) ALL
.
So I better remove the sudo command in /etc/xdg/autostart/manjaro-apply-locale.desktop:
.
Exec=sudo /usr/bin/apply-locale ==> Exec= /usr/bin/apply-locale

I changed this and the error is no more, however the file might default back to the previous state at a later stage when updated. since it is not a issue for me, this error is no error at all for me.

If I experience locale issues I’ll update the post.
