Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu: Invalid
Status in “bash-completion” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
This patch has lead to serious errors (comments #6, #7) and has clearly never been tested.  It should be reverted (debdiff in comment #8).

[ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:]
Binary package hint: apt

Wouldn't it be nice if when typing

apt-get install clu [press tab]

showed libclutter-* etc...

If the autocomplete was just capable of ignoring this common prefix, it would be easier to find a lot of things
