[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#650514: bash-completion: ssh host completion cannot deal with multiple files in UserKnownHostsFile

[Paul Wise]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.3-1
Severity: normal

The bash_completion script cannot deal with a line like this in ~/.ssh/config:

 UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/hosts/generic ~/.ssh/hosts/debian ~/.ssh/hosts/work

Instead I have to do this to get what I want in ssh and ssh completion:

 UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/hosts/generic
 UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/hosts/debian
 UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/hosts/work
 UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/hosts/generic ~/.ssh/hosts/debian ~/.ssh/hosts/work

The first three are for bash_completion and the last for ssh.
