By the way (sorry for the double post) have you tried to reinstall the "apt" package ?
can you join the /etc/apt/apt.conf file (if this file exist) and say us the read/write privilèges for this file ? Give us also the rights of the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d directory (a "ls -l /etc/apt/ " for exemple) Tanks -- 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
