Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bash-completion

jsc...@jscott-laptop:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 9.04
Release:        9.04

jsc...@jscott-laptop:~$ apt-cache policy bash-completion
bash-completion:
  Installed: 20080705ubuntu3
  Candidate: 20080705ubuntu3

Suppose we want to run /bin/true under gdb. I type in "gdb /bi" and
press TAB. This gets completed to "gdb /bin ". The problem is that a
space has been added after the 'n', so I have to press backspace to add
more to the path.

I would have expected that after typing "gdb /bi" and pressing TAB, I
would end up with "gdb /bin/", with the cursor directly after the '/'.
