[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1352565@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

This is an error report for package apt
(http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/apt), but i just can't select it from
the package filter as it yields "too many matches" for that name.

If you do

apt-get install/remove/whatever ""

you get:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::out_of_range'
  what():  basic_string::compare

and the program crashes instead of pointing out my stupidity.

This happens in Ubuntu 14.04 but I think it also affects other versions.
