Package: bash
Version: 3.0-15
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Command completion for LVM Physical Volume and Logical Volume names is
broken. For example "lvdisplay /dev/<tab>" gives:
awk: ^ syntax error
awk: {if ($2 ~ /^/dev//) print $2}
awk: ^ unterminated regexp
awk: cmd. line:1: {if ($2 ~ /^/dev//) print $2}
awk: cmd. line:1: ^ unexpected newline or end of
string
Device names typically contain forward slash characters ("/").
These need escaping before embedding them in awk patterns.
Patch attached.
