[Bug 1162637] Re: command completion

[jonathan chetwynd]

not clear to me this should be closed as Invalid...

Today I had a rather strange experience, have been developing with 14.04 on arm for a couple of weeks.
maybe 18 years linux experience, but hey amateur.

autocomplete in bash for commands as per ./dosomething has worked fine
eg ./do + Tab and Enter.

however after some small changes and rebuilding with cmake, autocomplete fails consistently.
the cmake build is one or two files, max 50 lines total.

just to confirm I had not updated, rebooted, changed any system files etc.
fully up to date 14.04.1 LTS  3.13.0-40-generic
it would help me if I could believe this bug was valid...

else cmake and that seems unlikely, but maybe possible.

Status in bash-completion package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  HI there. My terminal command completion didn't work when i type sudo
  in front of the command. For example when i type "sudo apt-" and then
  press tab, the command suggestion didn't showed up. But it works when
  i type "apt-" and then pres tab, as nomal user and super user. But
  "sudo apt-" and then tab works in other tty (i use tty2 for example).
