Anyhow, the option for tab completion to fill in "search", so "apt search $keyword", is missing. If I alter the completions file to add "search" then it seems to work as expected. $ diff /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/apt.orig /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/apt 10c10 < local COMMANDS=("install" "remove" "purge" "show" "list" --- > local COMMANDS=("install" "remove" "purge" "show" "list" "search" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: apt 1.0.10.2ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-30.36-generic 4.2.8-ckt3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-30-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Mon Mar 7 13:29:51 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-02 (1221 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.1) SourcePackage: apt UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to wily on 2016-01-06 (60 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1554057/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
