[Bug 1330173] Re: bash-completion of Makefile: invalid option name

[Aapo Rantalainen]

I created new user and bug didn't triggered. Then I copied .bashrc and
bug triggered. With bisecting I found one row which destroys bash-
completion for make.

.bashrc
-alias grep='grep --color=always'
+alias grep='grep --color=auto'

------
And after that, proper patch wasn't difficult.

/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/make

----
'grep grep /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/*' gives so many hits that it is possible that "grep is aliased to 'grep --color=always' " is bad idea.


** Package changed: bash (Ubuntu) => bash-completion (Ubuntu)
