The tool you need is:

This works to reset or blank the password .

That'll re-emerge anything that was built with different flags than what you have now .

That's it !
Couldn't you open another terminal and temporarily change the file's access rights?
From SO :
:w !sudo tee % .
Then I go out and move /tmp/tmpfile to my old file with sudo rights .
In this case, I wrote file with :w /tmp/tmpfile.
