[Bug 1095180] Re: incorrect bash-completion

[Thomas Ward]

Okay, so I spun up a VM for Lubuntu 12.04, and dropped it into tty mode.

After installing etckeeper (sudo apt-get install etckeeper) after
updating the packages, I can confirm this issue happens on Precise.

I can also reproduce this with Quantal.


But there's specific information here that I think needs to be added:  the bash completion of just etcke[TAB] *correctly* tabcompletes as 'etckeeper'.  This is in both user-space terminal logins as well as root logins, confirmed in both 12.04 and 12.10.

I don't have a spare Raring VM to test with, so I'm going to spin one up
and see if I can confirm it there.

Adding 'quantal' tag, and marking confirmed in the meantime.

** Changed in: etckeeper (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Tags added: quantal

** Description changed:

  bash-completion in precise is faulty
  
  $ cd /etc
  $ sudo etckeTAB
  
  that completes to
  
  $ sudo etckeeper/
  
  when it should complete only to
  
  $ sudo etckeeper
