Thanks for the very quick reponse. I think you can reinstall 'bash' and
'bash-completion' packages to attempt to fix this. Also, could you take
a look at the files /etc/bash.bashrc and /home/$USER/.bashrc . Towards
the end of those files, there should be the following lines:
# enable programmable completion features (you don't need to enable
# this, if it's already enabled in /etc/bash.bashrc and /etc/profile
# sources /etc/bash.bashrc).
if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ] && ! shopt -oq posix; then
. /etc/bash_completion
fi
If the three lines above are commented out in both files (they have # in
front of them), or the user .bashrc file is missing, bash completion
will fail.
