Package: bash
Version: 3.1-2
Severity: minor

completion for gzip is pretty weird. If you just try to complete without
entering anything, it offers only all files in the current directory. But
when you then enter
$ gzip -<TAB>
you get:
$ gzip -
-1 -2 -3 -4 -5 -6 -7 -8 -9                       -h -l -L -n -N -q -r -S -t -v 
-V                 --suffix --test --verbose --version --fast
--best                                           --license --no-name --name 
--quiet --recursive
-c -d -f                                         --stdout --decompress --force 
--help --list

and then
$ gzip -1<TAB>
expands to
gzip -1\ -2\ -3\ -4\ -5\ -6\ -7\ -8\ -9\

which is pretty useless.
