[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#830937: Please support dynamically loading completions from $HOME

[Josh Triplett]

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

bash-completion supports dynamically loading completions from
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions.  Please consider adding support
for dynamically loading completions from
$XDG_DATA_HOME/bash-completion/completions (defaulting to
~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions with $XDG_DATA_HOME unset).

This would allow installations of software into ~/.local to include bash
completion files.
