Bug Description

I tried running nodejs on Ubuntu Mate 18.04. When I ran it, it asked me to install it, I didn't know where to report this or where it was referring so I guessed it was apt.

The command 'nodejs' can be ""intsalled"" by typing:
sudo apt install nodejs

The typo is in double quotation marks. It says intsalled instead of installed. It should be corrected. Thanks!

Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.

The package suggestions for not installed packages is handled by command-not-found, so I've taken the liberty of reassigning this bug report. This sounds a bit like bug 1753102 which was fixed a while back, and the suggestion text has also been reworked since then. Could you please check which version of command-not-found you have installed (for instance with `apt policy command-not-found`)? This could be regression, but I wasn't able to reproduce it on my bionic system...

This is now fixed for me in Bionic so I'm marking it as such.
