I was testing with 0.5.1, and of course the search code has completely changed, so it's not surprising I couldn't reproduce this. > > Exactly which commands did you issue, and in what order; what is the > > exact text you typed, and what error messages / output did you see at > > each step? > > # echo 'aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Prompts "true";' >> .aptitude/config > # aptitude > l~Abad > (You now get an error message about ~Abad query) Not an error message, a message telling you that no packages matched. Apparently this message was lost in 0.5.1. > l~Atesting > (You now get the same error message about ~Abad query, or in other words > last search was not cleared) But the program actually goes ahead with the search -- it looks like the problem is that the warning message is never going away after it appears. It also doesn't go away when I move around the package list; I have to tab down to the minibuffer to make it go away.
