Package: bash Version: 3.2-4 Severity: minor Hi,
this bug is rather known (seen it on the ubuntu bts), see this demonstration: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/Test_Verzeichnis2$ sudo mount -o loop test test datei.iso test_datei.iso [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/Test_Verzeichnis2$ sudo mount -o loop test\ dgrep: Trailing backslash grep: Trailing backslash [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/Test_Verzeichnis2$ mount test\ datei.iso [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/Test_Verzeichnis2$ I tried to let bash autocomplete after I typed test\ d... So as it seems, it will not work correctly when the file to complete contains a whitespace AND if I use sudo. There is a note in /etc/bash_completion about sudo: # A meta-command completion function for commands like sudo(8), which need to # first complete on a command, then complete according to that command's own # completion definition - currently not quite foolproof (e.g. mount and umount # don't work properly), but still quite useful. yeah, not so foolproof ;) it would be nice if someone would have an idea how to improve the really nice completion feature there. greetings Michael -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bash depends on: ii base-files 4.0.5 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii debianutils 2.30 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20080925-1 shared libraries for terminal hand Versions of packages bash recommends: pn bash-completion <none> (no description available) Versions of packages bash suggests: pn bash-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
