I did confirm this bug on May, 11, but I can't reproduce it now: it must have
been fixed somewhen in the meanwhile ;)

$ sudo nice -n+20 apt-get dis<TAB>
$ sudo nice -n+20 apt-get dist-upgrade
$ nice -n+20 sudo apt-get dis<TAB>
$ nice -n+20 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

It seems working, uh? ;)

Please feel free to reopen the bug if you ever happen to encounter this again.

Kindly,
David
