Subject: bash-completion: Doesn't install any completions based on triggers

Date: Mon, 09 Jan 2012 20:05:38 -0500

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.99-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

bash-completion's postinst calls /usr/sbin/update-bash-completion on
installation, and when triggered by the installation of other
packages. However, /usr/sbin/update-bash-completion hasn't actually
been included in the package. Consequently, this latest upgrade has
removed all of my completions from /etc (except for those provided by
other packages), and hasn't installed anything in /var. Thus, I don't
have all of the fancy completions available that I used to.

Subject: Two bugs

Date: Mon, 09 Jan 2012 20:22:08 -0500

Whoops! Looks like this is actually related to other bugs already filed,
both fixed in git. One is a deceptive NEWS file (that tells me this
version uses dpkg triggers rather than the bash-based autoload mechanism
that's actually in use), and the other is Bug #648319
where /etc/bash_completion has been replaced
by /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion.
