On the Guix System, this is was gets run at login (/etc/profile, which sources /etc/bashrc): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- # The 'bash-completion' package. if [ -f /run/current-system/profile/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh ] then # Bash-completion sources ~/.bash_completion. It installs a dynamic # completion loader that searches its own completion files as well # as those in ~/.guix-profile and /run/current-system/profile. source /run/current-system/profile/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh fi --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I also have this line in my ~/.bashrc, and IIRC it was useful in getting the completion to work (not sure if it's required anymore): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- # Source the system-wide file. source /etc/bashrc --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- HTH, Maxim
