This bug was fixed in the package apt - 2.0.4
---------------
apt (2.0.4) focal; urgency=medium
[ Julian Andres Klode ]
* Merge 2.0.2ubuntu0.1 and 2.0.2ubuntu0.2 security updates with 2.0.3
release.
* pkgnames: Correctly set the default for AllNames to false, and do not
exclude virtual packages if --all-names is specified (LP: #1876495)
* Remove expired domain that became nsfw from debian/changelog
* patterns: Terminate short pattern by ~ and ! (LP: #1911676)
* Improve immediate configuration handling (LP: #1871268)
- Do not immediately configure m-a: same packages in lockstep
- Ignore failures from immediate configuration. This does not change the
actual installation ordering - we never passed the return code to the
caller and installation went underway anyway if it could be ordered at a
later stage, this just removes spurious after-the-fact errors.
[ JCGoran ]
* Fix "extended_states" typo in apt-mark(8) (Closes: #969086)
apt (2.0.3) focal; urgency=medium
[ Frans Spiesschaert ]
* Dutch manpages translation update (Closes: #956313)
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* Add correct std namespace to nullptr_t
[ Julian Andres Klode ]
* Reinstate * wildcards (Closes: #953531) (LP: #1872200)
* apt list: Fix behavior of regex vs fnmatch vs wildcards
* debian/gbp.conf: We're in the 2.0.y branch
* CI: Test on ubuntu:focal, not debian:unstable

Short pattern not terminated by ~ or !

Bug description:
[Impact]
Short patterns like ~nfoo!~nbar or ~nfoo~nbar do not work correctly -
they are treated as ?name(foo!~nbar) / ?name(foo~nbar) rather than
?name(foo)?not(?name(bar)) / ?name(foo)?name(bar)
[Test Case]
Unit tests have been added that are run during build and check they are
parsed correctly
+ EXPECT_PATTERN_EQ("~napt~nfoo", "?and(?name(apt),?name(foo))");
+ EXPECT_PATTERN_EQ("~napt!~nfoo", "?and(?name(apt),?not(?name(foo)))");
[Where problems could occur]
Really just changing a string constant for this change in a function that
parses of words, so well, the only problem arising could be that words inside
patterns are recognized wrongly.
