Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.1-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I have just made a dist-upgrade and the new version of bash_completion
has problems with proposing reasonble completions for python
scripts. Previously, when I typed
$ python [TAB] [TAB]
I got the list of python scripts in the current directory. Now I
simply get nothing. It seems the bug persists even if I specify a directory, e.g.:
$ python ~/foo/bar/[TAB]
Nothing at all. I briefly inspected the "python" bash_completion
module in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions and it seems that it
is now looking for modules, instead than standalone scripts. And this
is very annoying, indeed.

Hi,
I just noticed that bash_completion now misbehaves also with vi/vim
completion. Previously, when I typed:
$ vim [TAB] [TAB]
I got a list of files, now I get only *directories*, which is even
more annoying. It is very strange that an old packet like
bash-completion has all these problems, all of a sudden... :(

Hello all,
(sorry for the long list of CC)
writing to you because you reported a bug within bash-completion, which is
likely caused by the upgrade of bash to 4.3.
I've added Ville Skyttä in CC too -- I stopped actively developing
bash-completion long ago, and I believe he's now the main upstream developer,
so keeping him in the mail loop.
Please, from now on, refer to bug #739835 for further posts.
Ville: it seems like
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=739835#15 contains a
patch: have you had the chance to look at it? It seems to me that it doesn't
solve the problems reported.
Thanks, and sorry for not being totally clueless,
David

Is there a tiny hope we might have the patched packet in Jessie before
2015? :) I'm kidding, but seriously this is a quite basic packet used
by virtually all people who open a text shell (even once in a while),
and not a forgotten script used only by a handful of developers. Is
there anything we may do to speed up the process and have the patch
accepted in testing sooner?
