package: wajig
replace: wajig
version: 2.0.29
replace: 2.0.20
severity: critical

I normally run wajig as an unprivialiged user from my home directory
using sudo like I do for all other packages install related commands.
Wajig assumes my location is /etc/apt/ when I am really in /home/$USER
and this happens:
-------- console snip -------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo wajig search-apt stable
Using distribution stable.
Retrieving the list of mirrors from www.debian.org...

--12:15:12--  http://www.debian.org/mirror/mirrors_full
           => `mirrors_full'

Then:

The fastest non-US server seems to be:

Writing sources.list.
Done
--------------- end snip ------------

Wajig has assumed all along without checking that I am issuing teh
command from /etc/apt/ when I am really in /home/$USER/. I use sudo
wajig update as I would use sudo apt-get update and expect that it
updates the packages list as per usual ..... I hope

I have three Debian installed Sarge machines, kernels, blackstar's
kernel I compiled the others are standard Debian kernel images:
Linux blackstar 2.6.11.7-Blackstar-1.1 #1 Mon May 2 03:00:18 PDT 2005
i686 GNU/Linux
Linux fireroad 2.4.27-2-386 #1 Tue Aug 16 15:28:25 JST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
Linux arbutus 2.6.12-3-multimedia-686 #1 Thu Jun 23 11:52:20 CEST 2005
i686 GNU/Linux

I've just re-checked these results by changing to root and working in
root's home. wajig downloads a list of mirrors then procedes to find
appropriate mirros and produded a sources.list in /root.

Hope this helps,

David
