Have the same problem as Cristian Arezzni.Using Hard Heron 64 bit, oddly enough my Hard Heron 32 bit works. I tried to compare my bash_completion files and they look the same.

[Bug 368361] Re: apt-get Bash Autocompletion Not Working
I have the same problem of the original poster (no autocompletion with sudo apt-get install), but I do not have the /etc/apt/apt.conf file. This is a standard install of Ubuntu Jaunty from the regular desktop CD. I tried the command apt-cache pkgname gnome- without the sudo, as suggested above, but I get a E: Invalid operation pkgname error. I have to use pkgnames with the s to make it work, and then it gives me the list of packages even without the sudo. Could this be the problem?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions: * Is this reproducible? * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug? This will help us to find and resolve the problem. By the way, the auto-completion for the apt-get command works fine for me. If it's on a fresh install, perhap's this completion needed an apt- get update before. ** Changed in: bash-completion (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- apt-get Bash Autocompletion Not Working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368361 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

Some more things you can confirm - have you the auto-completion activated in your ~/.bashrc file ? - have you rebooted your computer since you constated this bug? - can you join your /etc/bash_completion file ? - can you try to re-install the bash-completion and the apt packages and see if you have the same issue?

Well finaly we are aproching the answer :-) The apt-cache can't access to the list of packages because your user don't have enought rights to do this. I don't know why this appening.
