Hello!
I've slightly investigated the problem myself. In the apt-utils.el I
see the form:
(defconst apt-utils-completing-read-hashtable-p
(and (not apt-utils-xemacs-p)
(or
;; Next released version after 21.3 will support this
(and
(>= emacs-major-version 21)
(>= emacs-minor-version 4))
(>= emacs-major-version 22)
;; As will the current pretest
(string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." emacs-version)))
"Non-nil if `completing-read' supports hash table as input.")
May be it pretends that Emacs 21.4 can do something that it actually
can't? Placing into ~/.emacs or /etc/emacs/default.el the next form
solves the problem:
(eval-after-load "apt-utils"
'(set 'apt-utils-completing-read-hashtable-p nil))
though, I thing it is a hack, anyway.
Best regards,
Igor.
