Not quite... When I was preparing last upload of "desktop-file-utils"
I've corrected (deprecated) location where bash-completion file was installed
to -- that's how I found conflict with "bash-completion".
It appears that on most systems "bash-completion" would actually provide
completion for "desktop-file-utils" so no longer installing completions into
deprecated location should not change anything.
Also it does not help the matter that available completions for "desktop-
file-utils" are different so one should check which one is better...
I agree that it would be better to ship "desktop-file-utils" completions in
its own package instead of "bash-completion"...

Then perhaps this bug should be cloned or re-assigned to "bash-completion" in
order to drop completions for "desktop-file-utils" so they could be re-
introduced to the latter. "bash-completion" should stop providing those
completions first, in order to allow "desktop-file-utils" to take over.
