Package: smartpm
Version: 0.39-1
Severity: important
Smart doesn't work at all as a user for me because my /etc/auto.misc
file isn't world readable (it contains passwords).
Eg
$ smart search bash
Traceback (most recent call last):

for line in open(mapfile):
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/auto.misc'
The following simple patch fixes the problem.
