Package: apt Version: 1.4~beta4 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
misspelling a pkgname and running apt-get purge for example: apt says "using CORRECT_PKGNAME" instead, but it is not (purging). This seems to me as inconsistent output or behaviour -->prerequirement: pakage (e.g. openssh-client) is installed -->detailed steps: try to purge the pakage and misspell it: apt purge ssh-server --> output: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Note, selecting 'openssh-client' instead of 'ssh-client' 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 11 not upgraded.
