[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#846510: bash-completion: Completion for apt-get, apt-cache no longer working

[Ralf Jung]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.1-4.3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

completion of package names for apt-get, apt-cache is no longer working:

  apt-cache show bash<TAB><TAB>
  [Nothing happens]

This is possibly related to Apt 1.4 landing in testing today.

Kind regards,
Rals
