Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 11.04
apt-cache policy pkgname fails with N: Unable to locate package pkgname
Ubuntu Software Centre 4.0.5ubuntu0.1
I expected the update to succeed.
I got a bug report about a failure to update
If you need any further information please feel free to email me at dave at davebolt.co.uk
I will probably need advice on how to find any information you might want.
I can leave this system for the time being as I have another machine with the same setup that I can use.
