Title:
bash ls tab completion broken for files/dirs with spaces in name
Status in “bash-completion” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Running updated ubuntu 11.10, tab completion fails to escape spaces in
filenames for some commands.
To repeat:
mkdir "abc def"
touch "abc def"/xyz
ls ab<TAB><ENTER>
Expected:
xyz
Observed:
ls: cannot access abc: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access def: No such file or directory
Also affects tab completion for 'touch', but not for 'echo' or when
looking for commands.
This worked fine in ubuntu 11.04.
