Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.1-4
Severity: important
bash-completion contains syntax errors in two functions. Executing
bash /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion
Output:
bash: _parse_usage: line 16: syntax error near unexpected token `('
bash: _parse_usage: line 16: ` -?(\[)+([a-zA-Z0-9?]))'
bash: error importing function definition for `_parse_usage'
bash: _longopt: line 14: syntax error near unexpected token `('
bash: _longopt: line 14: ` --+([-a-z0-9_]))'
bash: error importing function definition for `_longopt'
This bug is important because it makes various packages fail. The
desktop-base package fails because of _parse_usage failing. desktop-base
is called by tasksel in a debian installation.
Changing roots shell to dash does not help.
