Package: bash
Version: 3.1dfsg-8
Severity: normal
Because recent openssh obfuscates the contents of known_hosts, it's no
longer terribly useful to complete from it. I suggest this support be
removed. If you disagree, then at least only offer completions that
make sense, i.e. those lines with IP addresses or host names. One easy
and seemingly reliable way to do this is to filter the file with "grep
-v '|'" before offering completions.
