Hi, just noticed your [A hack to workaround error](
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-xapian-index/+bug/1612948/comments/6)
has a typo.
Can you please replace "ax-cache" by "axi-cache" and repost it ?

Ubuntu 19.10 is affected by this bug too.
This bug should be completely fixed before 20.04 LTS release.
Otherwise we will lose full-feature search in Synaptic and Muon.

This should be fixed before 20.04 LTS release.
And again - it is broken only on Ubuntu. Debian is not affected.
Could please take care on this bug?

Hello Norbert,
this bug report is about `axi-cache` not being fully ported. `axi-cache`
is a front-end for querying the xapian index and finding packages,
therefore I was suggesting a working alternative for the same task and
asking whether any feature was missing.

Dear Carlo!
> "Is there anything that `axi-cache` can do and cannot be done with `apt`?"
Are you writing this seriously?
`axi-cache` is broken and it does not matter that `apt` (or `apt-cache search`)
is not.
All `apt-xapian-index` package is broken, it causes Synaptic (see bug
1685376) and
The package from Debian works (as mentioned in comment #5) because it is
the "original" Python2.7 version. The package in Ubuntu includes a
(incomplete) port to Python3. Now, going back to Python2 would probably
"fix" these problems, but Python2 is being phased out in the upcoming
Ubuntu releases.
I am not to familiar with apt-xapian-index.
I have apt-xapian-index 0.47ubuntu8.3 from xenial-updates/universe repository.
I know only that current Xenial's version of `axi-cache` is broken:
$ axi-cache
No module named 'ConfigParser': only help functions are implemented, for the
sake of

Yes they have broken it. They didn't convert byte to string properly. I
