Thanks for your patch! I've now rebuilt a local bash-completion that
uses it, and it's just great.

Small feature request: "apt install" can now (with the version of apt in
experimental, at least) install local .deb packages, and resolve
dependencies as needed. So it'd be nice if "apt install <TAB>" would
also complete with local *.deb files on the filesystem. Do you think you
can add that?

FWIW, I'm considering NMU-ing to DELAYED/XX bash-completion to fix this
specific bug, as I think it'd help quite a bit with the adoption of the
new apt command. (But, anyone, feel free to beat me at it!)

Cheers.
