Hello util-linux maintainer,

Looping in the bash-completion maintainer too.

On a Stretch system with:
  util-linux_2.32-0.3
  bash-completion_1:2.1-4.3

I get an error performing a full-upgrade to Testing, as both packages
own `/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/su`:

```
    Preparing to unpack .../util-linux_2.32-0.3_amd64.deb ...
    Unpacking util-linux (2.32-0.3) over (2.29.2-1+deb9u1) ...
    Replacing files in old package login (1:4.4-4.1) ...

    dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
    dpkg: considering deconfiguration of util-linux, which would be broken by

    dpkg: no, util-linux is essential, will not deconfigure
     it in order to enable installation of login
    dpkg: error processing archive 
/var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.5-1.1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
     installing login would break existing software
    Errors were encountered while processing:
     /var/cache/apt/archives/util-linux_2.32-0.3_amd64.deb
     /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.5-1.1_amd64.deb
```



After a brief look at both source packages, I can see that meanwhile the last
util-linux doesn't ship that file, bash-completion does. Also, util-linux
declares a Break and Conflicts with specific versions of bash-completion, so I
have assumed that the bug report goes indeed against util-linux.

Please don't hesitate to reassign or reduce severity if needed.


Kind regards,
Víctor Cuadrado
