Package: bash-completion Version: 1:1.2-2 Severity: normal By placing a script in /etc/profile.d/, setting up of bash-completion becomes completely non-optional. Previously, it was up to the user to source /etc/bash_completion, but now it is not.
If a user has their own copy of ~/.bash_completion that they'd rather use instead, you end up in an infinite loop at login time, and that user has no ability to disable the sourcing of the system wide bash-completion scripts that lead to this inifinite loop. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bash-completion depends on: ii bash 4.1-3 The GNU Bourne Again SHell bash-completion recommends no packages. bash-completion suggests no packages. -- no debconf information _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list Bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
