[Bug 1134535] Re: dlocate filename commpletition

/etc/bash_completion.d/dlocate-completion is in dlocate, not
bash_completion.

 Also, dlocate should use dh_bash-completion when building itself, so
the completions will go in the new spot: /usr/share/bash-
completion/completions

/usr/share/doc/bash-completion/README.Debian


Anyway, back to this bug.  yeah, might not be a bad idea to have the default completion be _filedir, rather than options.  It currently only completes paths as arguments to -S.

 Also, the completions shouldn't list both -V and --version.  Only list
the long-option.  rationale in /usr/share/doc/bash-completion/README.gz
near the end.


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