First time it prompts me for a password - why? As far as I understand Fabric should be able to handle this?
Give the password and then the script runs without a hitch on re-runs afterwards.

I suspect that most of the time, sudo is being run when a password is
needed (that is, there hasn't been a recent sudo from that user), but
in the failure times, sudo is not prompting for a password because it
isn't needed.
Does Fabric itself assume that a password is needed every time?
