Public bug reported:

In 19.10 apt-file does not work anymore.
In 19.04 it did.

sudo apt-file find default.pa
reports:
Finding relevant cache files to search ...E: The cache is empty. You need to 
run "apt-file update" first.

sudo apt-file update
does not fix it.

It might be that no contents files are installed.


Also the configuration file seems to have moved.
This
 ln -sf /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50apt-file.conf /etc/apt/apt-file.conf
fixes it, but does not fix the above problem.
