Public bug reported: I don't really care which package it is in, but you should probably make the package suggestions include it.
# mkpasswd or # /usr/lib/command-not-found mkpasswd No command 'mkpasswd' found, did you mean: Command 'kpasswd' from package 'heimdal-clients' (universe) Command 'kpasswd' from package 'krb5-user' (universe) Command 'kpasswd' from package 'openafs-kpasswd' (universe) Command 'tkpasswd' from package 'expect-dev' (main) mkpasswd: command not found Related to bug 284416 but I don't want to reopen that one. I am not suggesting splitting the package. on openSUSE, the equivalent works fine: # mkpasswd If 'mkpasswd' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf mkpasswd # cnf mkpasswd The program 'mkpasswd' can be found in following packages: * whois [ path: /usr/bin/mkpasswd, repository: zypp (openSUSE:Stable_OSS) ] * whois [ path: /usr/bin/mkpasswd, repository: zypp (repo-oss) ] Try installing with: zypper install whois ** Affects: whois (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1301880 Title: whois contains mkpasswd but is not suggested when the command is typed and not installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whois/+bug/1301880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
