Summary: ULP 254426: Autocomplete of fileames with backquote expansion leaves 
garbage 
Distribution: None
Originally reported in: Ubuntu Launchpad
Milestone: None
Original bug number: 254426


Initial Comment:
With Bash programable autocomplete (/etc/bash_completion), commands within 
backquotes containing a space doesn't get autocompleted properly:

$ touch ~/some_file_`date -I`.txt
$ ls ~/some_file_`date -I`.txt
/home/gaby/some_file_2008-08-03.txt

So far this works, but if I press the <TAB> key at the end of the command:
$ ls ~/some_file`date /home/gaby/some_file_2008-08-03.txt

The autocompletion doesn't overwrite the whole argument and leaves 
"~/some_file`date " in front of it.
