[Bug 457163] Re: virsh lacks bash completion

[ Christian Ehrhardt ]

Upstream actually has completion, and we ship it since cosmic IIRC.

>From the build:
checking for BASH_COMPLETION... yes
checking for bash-completions directory... /usr/share/bash-completion/completions

configure: bash_completion: yes (CFLAGS='' LIBS='')

/usr/bin/install -c ../../../tools/bash-completion/vsh \
	"/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vsh"
( cd /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/share/bash-completion/completions && \
	rm -f virsh virt-admin && \
	ln -s vsh virsh && \
	ln -s vsh virt-admin )

Since
libvirt (4.5.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
  * [882c646] Install bash completion (Closes: #902450)

That said in Cosmic I have it all working as intented:
ubuntu at c:~$ virsh l
list                 lxc-enter-namespace  
ubuntu at c:~$ virsh list --
--all                   --managed-save          --persistent            --state-running         --title                 --with-managed-save     --without-snapshot
--autostart             --name                  --state-other           --state-shutoff         --transient             --with-snapshot         
--inactive              --no-autostart          --state-paused          --table                 --uuid                  --without-managed-save  
ubuntu at c:~$ virsh list --a
--all        --autostart
