Bug Description

On oneiric, if I type hugday (and the ubuntu-qa-tools package is not installed), I get "The program 'hugday' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-qa-tools ", but executing the command gives me an error about " Unable to locate package ubuntu-qa-tools".

TEST CASE:
1. use oneiric
2. type hugday
3. verify that command-not-found kicks in and suggests to install ubuntu-qa-tools
4. install command-not-found from oneiric-proposed
5. type hugday again
6. verify that it does not suggest anything this time (just outputs "command not found")
7. verify that a random binary like "gob2" still give a recommendation

Thanks for reporting this. Moving to command-not-found, the data package needs to be updated for the removals at the end of oneiric of which ubuntu-qa-tools was one. It it recommended to use that through its LP branch lp:ubuntu-qa-tools

affects: ubuntu-qa-tools (Ubuntu) → command-not-found (Ubuntu)

Additionally the data at:

http://rookery.ubuntu.com/~mvo/command-not-found/scan.data-latest

seems out of date too.

Thanks, I uploaded the updated command-not-found to oneiric-proposed now. The problem was that the mirror on the machine that extracts the data was outdated.
