Bug Description
Binary package hint: zsh
steps to reproduce:
1: apt-get install <pkg> (lynx, for example)
2: try to complete on ly<TAB>
3: zsh won't complete on the newly installed package (like bash does)
Also, it will complete on newly removed packages
running gutsy, e.g zsh 4.3.4
This is fairly standard for zsh. It speeds up it's tab completion by storing potential commands. if after installing a package (or uninstalling) you type "rehash" it will rebuild it's tab completion to display the new commands (or remove the old ones depending on what you did).
