Same bug on a fresh install of Lucid on a Lenovo ThinkPad R61e (model DNG 7650). I have only installaed Italian Support and removed English Language... may this can be the problem? ** Changed in: synaptic (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New -- Synaptic package manager just showing installed app when using search function https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The command sudo update-apt-xapian.index doesn't work, but if you add a -f option, it do the magic. I've installed Lucid many times on different hardwares, this is the first time...

[Bug 294522] Re: Synaptic package manager just showing installed app when using search function
Just hit this one with a fresh 9.04 install. Strange, as every other install of 9.04 I've done _worked_. Ben's fix, however, doesn't help in this instance - I still only see packages that are installed when using quicksearch. Using single-letter full searches works (as in I get packages that aren't installed, but searching using only a single letter is next to useless). -- Synaptic package manager just showing installed app when using search function https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 294522] Re: Synaptic package manager just showing installed app when using search function
not sure if this workaround is a permanent solution. Can someone set this to be done automatically after installing or after the first apt- get update? It would only add a few seconds to the install for users unaffected by this issue and solve it for the rest. ** Changed in: synaptic (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = In Progress -- Synaptic package manager just showing installed app when using search function https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have marked this as in progress to keep it from expiring, untill the underlying cause is fixed or this solution is adapted by default. Thanks Sunny for pointing that out.
