Summary: Please add host completion to 'host' and 'nslookup' 
Distribution: Debian
Originally reported in: None
Milestone: None
Status: None
Original bug number: 


Initial Comment:
It's frustrated me for a while now that 'host' doesn't complete like 'ping' and 'dig' and 'ssh' do. The following patch fixes that. Please can this be included in Jessie?

Message:
Have just found that git HEAD already includes this line in the _host function. I've also checked and that version is in Jessie.

Please close this request as FIXED.
