We are even moving the init-functions library for boot to /lib/lsb. Adding library scripts for a specific application is different from historical Unix usage. >> What functionality fails if these are missing? > Bash tab completion for the gsettings and gdbus commands, and several > grub-* commands.

When I do a <tab>, I get a list of files/directories in PWD. But then I use 'set show-all-if-ambiguous On' in my inputrc. I wonder what is supposed to ge going on.
