I do strongly agree... Installing packages and working fast on the commandline 
without autocompletion since Alpha 5 is a mess...
I first thought it would be a bug and looked up all my bashrc config files but 
autocompletion was enabled per-user already. I tried enabling it in the global 
/etc/bash.bashrc but nothing happened. Fortunately I found this bug report 
after a lot searching in launchpad.

To mention: before doing anything bash completed the first command typed
in (e.g "sudo"), but the following one seemed to be interpreted as
parameter and therefore did not autocomplete (e.g. "apt-get"). After
installing bash-completion everything worked fine again.

Suggestion: if this is really needed to be done give a hint on it or
some comment in the release notes, etc... This will safe a lot of
trouble...
