How to add a single user to the sudoers list?
In both Fedora and PCLinuxOS Debian edition which I have installed recently it seems I need to add the only user to sudoers list to perform certain actions.
How to do this?

Debian uses a group called sudo. Add a user to that group.
usermod -aG sudo
I will try that.
Add the desired user to the wheel group in Fedora
