I'm doing the same thing for msix for now. But when I searched for certificates I could only find closer to $200/yr and you need to load it in the latest $100 yubikey due to the fips requirement. I didn't realize that CAs dont let you just get the private/public key files any more. Only distribution method is hardware based fips key. I've given up entirely on code signing since I only made a single open source project for amateur radio.

Turns out sudo-rs at least at the time was missing the flag for ask pass which was quite frustrating and rubbed me the wrong way due to the "rush for rust" and sudo-rs not being a drop in replacement yet. Also it also wasn't really documented how to go back to the old sudo which I found by just installing sudo and removing sudo-rs. I was already in the processes of dropping Ubuntu for Debian so that was long term fix for me.
