Bug Description

the wrapper script uses invalid wget parameters that break the application.
Notice that how to configure the script using /etc/jigt.conf or
$HOME/.jigit.conf *is not* mentioned in the man page. This bug is present in
both Hoary and Breezy (using a Breezy updated up to 2005-10-01 12:00 UTC).The
following patch solves the bug:

And BTW, what's with pointing jigit by default to a broken web site
(http://people.debian.org/~93sam/)?

Thanks for the heads up. I will change the WGET_OPTS. The fix for the broken
website is a bit trickier, because we don't support jigdo/jigit officially.
cdimage.ubuntu.com is quite busy already. After the upload I will mark this bug
report as FIXED.

Sorry, I was mistaken on this and didn't double check. We DO support Jigdo, just
not for Universe/Multiverse.

  * jigit:
    - set host to "http://releases.ubuntu.com"
