[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#644393: bash-completion: does not complete configure file arguments

[Michal Suchanek]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.3-3
Severity: normal

Hello,

I tried to run configure and I cannot complete the --prefix argument
in bash.

It used to work at least when a space was placed in fornt of it, now it
is totally impossible.

In general, bash completion often prevents completing file arguments to
commands that take them for no godd reason.
