Apart from dkms, git, and grub2, for which I have already explained the
cause of the problem in message 83 [1], dlocate also has a problem that
bash-completion cannot fix, because the use of the obsolete directory
(/etc/bash_completion.d/) is hardcoded in upstream sources.
$ dget
http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dlocate/dlocate_1.07+nmu1.dsc
$ grep -RnE completion dlocate-1.07+nmu1/
dlocate-1.07+nmu1/Makefile:16: install -m 644 dlocate-completion
$(DESTDIR)/etc/bash_completion.d/
Net, the only packages that have problems are dkms, dlocate, git, and
grub2. I'll open bugs for them, then close this bug report.
