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.
