Package: apt-file Version: 2.1.3 Severity: minor
debian/apt-file.postinst currently reminds the user to run "sudo apt-file update" after installation. I believe that this script should be changed to either (1) remove the reference to sudo entirely, since a base, non-expert debian installation does not configure sudo for normal users, or (2) include a test to see if /usr/bin/sudo exists, and if it doesn't exist, suggest an alternative way to update the cache, like "su root -c 'apt-file update'".
