Severity: normal

Hello!

When I try to use the provided bash-completion with uupdate, it only
offers -* options when I type tab; if I start typing a filename, then
typing tab does not offer any completions.  It also doesn't make sense
to me why --pristine should then do a compgen -G on filenames.
Perhaps remove the --pristine section from the uupdate completion
script, change the *) section to -*), and *) then becomes:

  _filedir
  ;;

which does filename completion?

Best wishes,

   Julian
