Package: apt
Version: 2.9.8
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: liangjunyon...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I was using the apt show command to check details about a package that
does not exist.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
I ran the command "apt show zed" to see the details of the package zed,
which is not available in the repositories.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The command output included two identical "Notice: Unable to locate
package" messages followed by "Error: No packages found."
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected only a single "Notice: Unable to locate package" message
followed by the "Error: No packages found."
