Public bug reported:
I am submitting after verifying it is really a bug by asking a question
in askubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1010931/direxpand-
unexpected-behavior
With the default bash, bash option `direxpand` is unset by default:
shopt direxpand
direxpand off
So normally when I type:
proc=/proc
ls $proc/<tab>
I should see no expansion, but I see
ls /proc/
After investigation it is the bash-completion script which overide
direxpand. I do not know if this could be avoided...
