Package: bash-completion Version: 1:2.1-4.1 Severity: serious Justification: hides bugs which can become RC
dh_bash-completion's heuristics for detecting wheter a debian/package.bash-completion file is a script or a list of files it's not safe enough, hiding possible bugs which can create RC bugs like #785267. In this case the problem was that the paths listed contained ther version of cmake in it. The version changed and dh_bash-completion detected the file as a script causing #785267, instead of failing and telling the maintainer that there was a problem. I think the best thing to do here is simply list files and not expect scripts, they can easily be added there. Another way to solve this could be changing the file suffix to something like bash-completion-script and/or bash-completion-install. For now the easy way around is using * in the paths, but that's just a workaround.
