Package: npm
Version: 5.8.0+ds6-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Dear Maintainer,

installing npm breaks bash-completion for other packages, for example dd.  You
can reproduce this by typing "dd if=", typing the beginning of a filename and
then hitting "Tab".  Now the "if=" gets removed from before the filename.  The
cause for this is the following line in /etc/bash-completion.d/npm:

COMP_WORDBREAKS=${COMP_WORDBREAKS/=/}

Please remove that line, or otherwise stop breaking unrelated packages.

Kind regards,
Ralf
