It has messed up multiple commands for me for a long time. Have reported some of them, have opened threads on mailing-lists, but it hasn't lead to anything. $ cd some-srpms-dir $ dnf builddep foo<TAB> $ dnf builddep foo<TAB><TAB> It doesn't complete anything. No matter how often I press TAB. Compared with: $ yum-builddep foo<TAB> It queries the RPM database, which is something I don't want, and only then shows multiple pages of local files and installed packages, asking me to page through them, so I may add refine my completion request. If I uninstall bash-completion package, at least both commands behave the same, and "dnf builddep ..." becomes usable again. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
