[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#587765: bash-completion: /etc/bash_completion.d/* should probably move to /usr/share

[Ansgar Burchardt]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.2-2
Severity: minor

Hi,

while updating the bash-completion package I saw lots of messages like

  Installing new version of config file /etc/bash_completion.d/ssh ...

on the terminal.  Looking at these files it does not look like they are
intended to be modified for regular use.  Is there any reason why the
files in /etc/bash_completion.d/* are not located in
/usr/share/bash-completion (or similar)?

Just for reference: zsh stores the scripts related to completion in
/usr/share/zsh/functions/Completion.

Regards,
Ansgar
