PackageKit is the upstream of the package installer used in Fedora and
probably some other distros, which is the thing I said I'd fix if my
idea works. A little homework before throwing such accusations, no?

No. I said what I plan to do and have now done it.

Besides, as previously mentioned, those completion functions may not
come from us so there's nothing we can do about them. I think
disabling command_not_found_handlers while running completions is
something bash maintainers could be interested in doing for bash
itself, so if someone's passionate enough about this, ask them?

It's surprising that you don't understand that I have a different
opinion and trying to force-feed me yours, especially with parroting
the same thing without new arguments, dismissing work done before
actually checking what it does (the PackageKit fix), and in a tone
like that will not accomplish anything useful. Quite the contrary,
it'll result in waste of time threads like this which as far as I'm
concerned will end here unless there's something new that actually
calls for more discussion.

I have looked at it, and even before you sent it I outlined why I
don't think it's the approach we should take. My opinion has not
changed.
