Package: aptitude
Version: 0.6.3-3.2
Severity: important
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Just today saw that for some reason aptitude seems broken. Dunno the
reason. I don't know if its do with aptitude or some other update
which introduced the issue. The issue is simple
Before I could do something like
$sudo aptitude purge linux-image[TAB]
putting down the tab it would autocomplete or/and give other options
if there were multiple options (it would do some kinda grep)
Now after the update of aptitude few days ago and other things I get
something like this :-
sudo aptitude purge linux-image [TAB]grep-status:
/var/lib/dpkg/status:14651: expected a colon
Now I can see this is telling me something but where the issue is I am
not able to follow, can somebody share with me ?
