For the record (first lines are doubled, it's not my mistake): --------------------------------------------------------------------- # time aptitude install foobar Couldn't find any package matching "foobar". However, the following packages contain "foobar" in their description: lxmusic man2html Couldn't find any package matching "foobar". However, the following packages contain "foobar" in their description: lxmusic man2html No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used. real 0m2.646s user 0m1.488s sys 0m0.568s --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mine is 2.646 seconds, yours seems to be 29s. I never experienced aptitude being so slow, but other than that I continue to think the same about closing the bug report.
