Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.1-3
Severity: normal
Folder names with quotes confuse bash-completion.
$ mkdir a\'b
$ touch a\'b/test
$ cp a\'b/
The completing for the cp (or ls, mv, ...) parameter hangs after the
first folder name and doesn't complete to the filename.
Interestingly, it works with commands unknown to bash-completion.
$ ll a\'b/test
$ xyz a\'b/test
work just fine.
