On the other hand, with the current version in unstable, 2.10-1, it doesn't happen anymore (nor does it with 2.9-1). I don't have plans to add backports for bash-completion, and I would mark this bug as fixed since 2.9-1, however... >With "gawk" installed (which gets used as more important alternative >automatically), this works as expected. > >When using a debian live USB stick (which has spaces in the label), >autocompletion is broken though: ... this is a different problem and still happens with the current version, 2.10-1. So I'll just rename the bug report so that it only refers to this second problem. I don't have a solution, yet, but thanks for the bug report. > $ umount /media/<tab> >gives > $ umount /media/user/d-live nf 10.2.0 lx amd64 > umount: /media/user/d-live: kein Einhängepunkt angegeben. > umount: nf: kein Einhängepunkt angegeben. > umount: 10.2.0: kein Einhängepunkt angegeben. > umount: lx: kein Einhängepunkt angegeben. > umount: amd64: kein Einhängepunkt angegeben. > >I need to manually put quotes around that: > > $ umount "/media/user/d-live nf 10.2.0 lx amd64" Confirmed.
