Package: bash
Version: 2.05a-4
Severity: normal
The . directory is not on my PATH.
I happened to have an executable named 'pauseplay' in the . directory.
In bash, if I say
$ pause[TAB]
bash behaves correctly -- there is no executable starting with 'pause'
on my $PATH.
But if I say
$ while [ 1 ] ; do pause[TAB]
bash wrongly completes this! :) He should force me to say
$ while [ 1 ] ; do ./pau[TAB]
which is consistent with $PATH.
Hope this helps,
-ans.

This has been fixed in newer versions of bash (and bash-completion, which has
been split from bash in February 2008). In particular, you won't find it in
20060301-4 (the current testing/unstable version), but I can't really say which
was the first version fixing this.
Thanks for your report,
David
