Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.2-3
Severity: normal
With Debian Squeeze I can't type cd ~pp and get the loginname completed. That
worked on Lenny.
For a quick check I transferred /etc/bash_completion from a Lenny to Squeeze
and it worked as you can see below.
su -
Password:
-su: [: too many arguments
-su: [: =: unary operator expected
-su: [: =: unary operator expected
-su: [: too many arguments
-su: [: too many arguments
[root at axilleas][~]#
cd ~p
~pparissis/ ~proxy/ ~pulse
The errors you see is related to the /etc/bash_completion from Lenny, when I
use the /etc/bash_completion from squeeze I get no errors
