Package: python-weboob
Version: 0.i-2
Severity: normal
The python-weboob installs a script in /etc/bash_completion.d/weboob
that considerably slows down bash startup time, up to three seconds even on
high end systems.
On every shell invocation (regardless of whether weboob is used or not),
the weboob-config script is called, which is a large python script that
imports many packages, as can be seen when someone get impatient and
issues a Ctrl+C on the unresponsive terminal:

KeyboardInterrupt
This is the only bash completion script (at least on my system) that
unconditionally calls an large interpreted program at shell startup.
The output of weboob-config will typically not change much and could
at least be cached.
An ideal solution would be to have weboob maintain a global and per-user
list of programs that must be auto-completed, which can be easily read by a
shell function.
