[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#647352: ssh completion does complete hosts after special characters

[Paul Wise]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.3-1
Severity: normal
File: /etc/bash_completion.d/ssh

I am unable to complete 'ssh alio' when my hosts file contains special
characters before the alioth alias. It works when I put the special
characters at the end though. The / and + are for jumping through
different kinds of ssh jumphosts[1].

pabs at chianamo:~$ grep alioth .ssh/hosts/*
.ssh/hosts/debian:wagner.debian.org,*/wagner.debian.org,*+wagner.debian.org,alioth.debian.org,alioth,217.196.43.132,217.196.43.134 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAQEApH6uMkt/PlYAgMxw7tKTzQW9y7YLt06i81gHqtO/Xacbmtnu0DJNN6uvR3czzmHkB+kcO88Am64Fitn3O0YRg/Zqgxum0G8Uuc/g7iNfeF4tYxyWad0TbURa88xqu0CR9UwNJ0emz98iUvM1lsc+NukbMk3ONFy+XtsXDOoKttZyS/k8bNRnq3Iz9uWEHz1zFDhjarpnoj1ClpzfroWDuBRBVvwY78t0e8ZycGQx9sONi7YM/6e2PHldVyIDaJY3RD3T1+sa5yO0vESE86JuS9yZlmuokD9/csP/udTWLhF63DVyq6MxmZtqvoHMl4RtZq4U59TqPCjWg/3Q+3ZqzQ== root at wagner
