[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#714508: bash terminates on completion if "set -o errexit" (set -e) is set

[Kernc]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainers,

When "set -o errexit" is set, bash exits on some TAB-completition.

Bash exits on:

$ set -e
$ cd <TAB>

Bash does not exit on:

$ set -e
$ c<TAB>

But instead correctly shows possible options.

Bash exiting on TAB key seems wrong. If bash_completion isn't sourced in,
everything works fine (except completion:D).

Should bash_completion be made "set -e"-proof?
