Turns out I ran into 648319, and bash-completion hadn't actually loaded at all. After manually loading it from /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion, I can confirm that this bug appears fixed. I've also raised the severity of 648319, since it breaks the standard user configuration that bash-completion recommended for years, that bash has shipped in /etc/skel/.bashrc for years, and that numerous people will thus have in ~/.bashrc . - Josh Triplett _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list Bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
