Bug description:
Bash completion for Inkscape does not work in Ubuntu 18.04. It will
for example suggest non-svg files.
The reason seems to be that /usr/share/bash-
completion/completions/inkscape uses the have() function, which is
temporarily defined in /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion, but
then unset at the end of that file.
Workaround: Copy /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/inkscape to
~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/inkscape and remove the
uses of "have".
The bash completion for some other commands seem to use have() too,
e.g. jackd, ufw, cowbuilder, dpatch_edit_patch, and axi-cache, so bash
completion for these commands will presumably not work either.
From /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Backwards compatibility for compat completions that use have().
# @deprecated should no longer be used; generally not needed with dynamically
# loaded completions, and _have is suitable for runtime use.
have()
{
unset -v have
_have $1 && have=yes
}
[...]
unset -f have
unset have
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/inkscape:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
have inkscape &&
_inkscape()
{
[...]
}
[ "${have:-}" ] && complete -F _inkscape $filenames inkscape
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
