Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: command-not-found

1. Get your computer into a state where apt-get is unavailable -- for example, 
by experiencing a disk error that loses it.
2. From the terminal, enter a command that requires apt, e.g. apt-get.

What happens: "The program 'apt-get' is currently not installed. You can
install it by typing: apt-get install apt"

What should happen:
* At a minimum, command-not-found should not suggest the impossible.
* Perhaps command-not-found should check if there is an Internet connection, 
and if there is, offer to download and install apt itself.
