How do you fix the command-not-found issue on Ubuntu 10.04?

Question

I type some command which does not exist at the terminal and I get:

$ asd
/usr/bin/python: can't find '__main__.py' in '/usr/share/command-not-found'

How do I fix the above to display the correct error message? The Ubuntu version I'm using is 10.04, 2.6.32-22

See this bug. You can try the workaround listed or reinstall command-not-found and command-not-found-data.

Or remove them... personally I can't stand the added delay when I've just made a simple typo! – bobince May 16 '10 at 12:52
