I don't personally find rpmdb completion too slow to warrant it being off by default. And unlike the avahi case with known hosts completion (which still returns quite meaningful results without avahi), I think completing installed package names for rpm commands that need them is quite essential. > and scp remote filesystem completion), This one can be slow, but is it really a problem? Again compared to the avahi+known_hosts case it's different - if we disable this, then there are no remote file completions at all. People can already accomplish that by just not hitting tab directly after the colon. Or do I miss something? So my opinion about the rpm and scp cases above is that they should not be turned off by default, but if someone wants to do it the other way around and provide a variable that people can set if they want them turned off, no objections here. > and standardising variable names. Yep, I think this should be considered as part of the function naming roadmap item for 2.0. _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
