[Bug 546794] Re: [revert, causes errors] Smarter lib* aware autocompletion?

[Anders Kaseorg]

** Description changed:

+ This patch has lead to serious errors (comments #6, #7) and has clearly
+ never been tested.  It should be reverted (debdiff in comment #8).
+ 
+ [ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:]
  Binary package hint: apt
  
  Wouldn't it be nice if when typing
  
  apt-get install clu [press tab]
  
  showed libclutter-* etc...
  
  If the autocomplete was just capable of ignoring this common prefix, it
  would be easier to find a lot of things
  
  :)
