 A recent update to sudo (maybe in connection to a pam update) changed
the behavior of not asking the user (in X session) for authentication
when opening another terminal and calling sudo in it (withing a 5 minute
interval from the previous successful authentication in the other terminal).
How can I set it to its previous behavior ?

"man sudoers" maybe has the info you need.  It describes configuration 
options in /etc/sudoers.

Indeed. I added the following line in /etc/sudoers and it did the trick!

Defaults !tty_tickets

Thanks ;-)
