Package: zsh-common Version: 5.4.2-2 Severity: normal We know that newer apt provides apt(1) that can install local deb packages and automatically resolve its dependencies. This feature supercedes "dpkg -i package.deb".
However, zsh does not provide completion to installing local deb packages now. As new apt is gradually getting around we should really add such completion feature. FYI, the difference between installing a package from software source and installing a local package depends on whether the user is typing a path (relative or absolute). If it's a path, apt will search for the deb package according to the path; if it's a package name, apt will download and install it from remote software archive. That should help will the completion implementation. P.S. Bash can already complete "apt install ./*.deb" correctly.
