Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.1-4
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I'm working on getting an updated util-linux package into Debian
(and you can see my efforts in experimental).
I'm inclined to ship the set of bash completions available
from upstream util-linux and have crafted a way for the
package to only include the completions that we actually ship
in the util-linux package in Debian. (Many utilities
overlap with other packages, ie. eject, sysvinit-utils,
bsdmainutils, etc...)
Unfortunately I still ran into problems because of the following
completions shipped in the bash-completion package:
bash-completion: /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pgrep
bash-completion: /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/dmesg
Could you please consider dropping these and let me ship them
from the util-linux source instead?
