Package: emacs-goodies-el
Version: 24.15-2
Severity: normal

The documentation for activating the advices in the shell-command.el
library is wrong.  Quoting from the Info section:

,----
|    Install this file to an appropriate directory, and put these lines
| into your ~/.emacs.
|
|          (require 'shell-command)
|          (shell-command-activate-advices)
|
|    Note that the `require' is not needed in the Debian package
| `emacs-goodies-el'.
`----

But it _is_ necessary to set the variable 'shell-command-enable-completions'
to t *before* calling shell-command-activate-advices, otherwise
shell-command-activate-advices has no effect.  So, please add a line with

           (setq shell-command-enable-completions t)

before the line with (shell-command-activate-advices).
