Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
The gnome-terminal auto-completion seems to work only on the first entered
command.
Example: apt- + <TAB> will bring up the remaining possibilities to complete
that command as regular, but:
apt-get i + <TAB> won't show "apt-get install" or
apt-get install k + <TAB> won't show packages beginning with k, instead
there's a beep sound from the pcspeaker as if there were no valid
possibilities to autocomplete the command.
Autocompletion seems to work on folders though, like cp /home/r + <TAB>
shows me folders beginning with r.
Putting the "sudo" command in front of a command will make the
autocompletion on the command not possible - the only thing that works
is the autocompletion of the directory argument like "sudo cp
/home/reic/f" to "sudo cp /home/reic/files/"
