Package: apt
Version: 2.0.0
Severity: normal
Hello,
I noticed that completion for apt and aptitude sometimes list invalid packages.
For example:
$ apt show openssh
openssh openssh-client-ssh1 openssh-server openssh-ssh1
openssh-client openssh-known-hosts openssh-sftp-server openssh-tests
$ apt show openssh
N: Unable to locate package openssh
N: Unable to locate package openssh
E: No packages found
The reason is that bash-completion relies on the output of "apt-cache pkgnames"
command. Currently, it shows both source and binary packages, but we need to
complete only binary packages in the case above.
Not sure if it's a bug in bash-completion or in apt, but it seems that it's
more suitable to fix in apt, because of the following:
- it seems that the bug appeared after the upgrade to apt 2.0
- I didn't find an option to exclude source packages from the output. Adding
this option would be also good to fix the issue in bash-completion.
