Package: apt-file
Version: 2.1.0
Severity: normal

 I'm running AMD64 Ubuntu Hardy, but I'm reporting this to the Debian
BTS because the package version doesn't have ubuntu in it, so I assume
the bug was/is also present in apt-file 2.1.0 in Debian.  (It's not
present in apt-file 2.0.8.2 in etch).

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt-file
/usr/share/apt-file/is-cache-empty: line 13: return: can only return from a 
function or sourced script

 is-cache-empty should probably use exit 0  or  exit 1  not return,
unless it is sourced somewhere and exec()ed somewhere else.  In that
case, it's probably best to call it the same way everywhere.

 (I was using dpkg-reconfigure to see if there was an option to
configure periodic updates with a cron job...)
