Public bug reported: Binary package hint: dctrl-tools
After installation of XMind from http://www.xmind.net/, grep-status is broken. This in turn leads to breakage of tab-completion of the aptitude reinstall command. The error looks like this: r...@eekkater:~# aptitude reinstall grep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:11728: expected a colon .grep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:11728: expected a colon . Display all 490 possibilities? (y or n) r...@eekkater:~# The section of /var/lib/dpkg/status in question is the following: <quote> Package: xmind Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: multiverse/text Installed-Size: 43060 Maintainer: xmind <d...@xmind.net> Architecture: amd64 Version: 3.1.1.200912022330 Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0), openjdk-6-jre | sun-java5-jre | sun-java6-jre Description: XMind - Brainstorming and Mind Mapping XMind, is a great brainstorming and mind mapping software tool, developed by XMind Ltd.
