Package: zile
Version: 2.0.4-2
Severity: important
After a recent sudo security update (I think), zile will no longer start
when run with sudo:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ska]$ sudo zile
Password:
fatal error: please set `HOME' to point to your home-directory
I have not made any other change to my configuration which should cause
this, and other applications (e.g., emacs) still runs fine from sudo.
HOME is set as well:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ska]$ sudo echo $HOME
/home/ska
I'm not sure if this is a sudo or a zile bug, though.

Hi,
I'm closing this bug with this email.
The problem does not exist in Etch or Sid. Also it is not important
enough to be candidate to an update in Sarge.
Thanks,
