I'm still trying to reproduce the problem, so...
I copied the file that you attached to message #15 [1,2] into
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/fsmtool2, as can be verified in
the following snippet:
$ head /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/fsmtool2
have fsmtool2 && {
_fsmtool2_commands() {
COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "help showconfig showfiles showfileslex deleteall"
-- $1) )
}
_fsmtool2()
{
local areas command cur
cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
command=${COMP_WORDS[1]}
Then, I tried basic completion:
$ fsmtool2 <TAB><TAB>
deleteall help showconfig showfiles showfileslex
i.e.: it completes with the basic commands correctly.
If I try to complete the second word, then it doesn't work, but that's
because I don't have the configuration file under /etc and I believe
that this is unrelated to your problem:
$ fsmtool2 showconfig <TAB>
grep: /etc/fsmd2/fsmd2.conf: No such file or directory
> completion does not work anymore.
Perhaps this only works for me because I'm running sid and testing?
But it does work for me.
I will create a chroot with old-stable (buster) to check if older
versions of bash-completion have this problem.

Can you do that?
I mean, does it fix the problems you are hitting?
While I understand that installing things under /etc/bash_completion.d/
made things work for you, we can't change dh_bash-completion to install
things under that directory. dh_bash-completion must install to
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions.
Cheers,
Gabriel
