Hi all, I have used command-not-found in the past and it used to be good.
I just installed it , ran an apt update and tried to run a command which I knew whose binary isn't installed but command-not-found didn't work. I am using zsh though if it makes any difference. % apt-cache policy command-not-found command-not-found: Installed: 0.2.38-4 Candidate: 0.2.38-4 Version table: *** 0.2.38-4 900 900 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster/main amd64 Packages 1 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status % sudo apt update [sudo] password for shirish: Hit:1 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian buster InRelease Hit:2 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian unstable InRelease Hit:3 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian experimental InRelease Reading package lists...
