  Bash completion of flags not working in Trusty

Status in bash-completion package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On the previous version of bash completion for Precise (bash-
  completion v1:1.3-1ubuntu8.1) I was able to use tab completion for
  filenames passed into commands as flags. In the current version in
  Trusty this functionality is missing.

  Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release:        14.04

  2. Package version:
  bash-completion 1:2.1-4

  3. What you expected to happen
  some_executable --file=/etc/h<TAB> should autocomplete to /etc/hosts

  4. What happened instead. 
  Tab completion does not work for filenames passed into commands as flags
