Mid 2020, I re-installed a Raspberry Pi 2 box based on OpenSuSE Tumbleweed.
To my susprise the yast2 module sudo could not write the configuration.
It appeared that /etc/sudoers had become readonly and a new /etc/sudoers.d was created.
You can use visudo to edit files in that directory without potentially losing changes in /etc/sudoers during upgrades. I think that is a good move.
To bad the yast module failed because of it.
More on visudo and the /etc/sudoers.d directory:

appending : to the resolvable allows you to match different types in one command it seems.
zypper install java-1_6_0-openjdk-devel mercurial +pattern:devel_C_C++ +pattern:devel_java
The italic are packages; the bold are patterns.
