Hello!

I've slightly investigated the problem myself. In the apt-utils.el I
see the form:

(defconst apt-utils-completing-read-hashtable-p
  (and (not apt-utils-xemacs-p)
       (or
        ;; Next released version after 21.3 will support this
        (and
         (>= emacs-major-version 21)
         (>= emacs-minor-version 4))
        (>= emacs-major-version 22)
        ;; As will the current pretest
        (string-match "\\..*\\..*\\." emacs-version)))
  "Non-nil if `completing-read' supports hash table as input.")

May be it pretends that Emacs 21.4 can do something that it actually
can't? Placing into ~/.emacs or /etc/emacs/default.el the next form
solves the problem:

(eval-after-load "apt-utils"
  '(set 'apt-utils-completing-read-hashtable-p nil))

though, I thing it is a hack, anyway.

Best regards,
Igor.
