Hi, I made a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty AMD64 and the quick search box on Synaptic wasn't working, so looking on the net I found 3 solution, and only 1 worked out.
The first one... old bug: sudo update-apt-xapian-index (didn't work) The second one... changing the repo of the package (didn't work either) And the third one, the BIG ONE I found it here... the post numer #33... check this out! I had the same problem on Jaunty RC; "sudo update-apt-xapian-index" didn't work (I closed Synaptic), so I deleted /var/lib/apt-xapian-index/ and then the fix worked. Soooo.... the solution was to delete the folder "/var/lib/apt-xapian-index/" then I reopened Synaptic and apears the message "Reloading the index" (or something like that, I have it in spanish) I waited for like 1 minute and... TSCHA TSCHAAAAN!!! was working! So thanks a lot to the GNU/Linux comunity to share their knowledge! PD: My PC is a AMD Sempron 2600, OC to 2.0 Ghz... 1 GB RAM and gc GeForce fx5600.... and everyhing fly so smooth!!!
