Bug description:
[Impact]
Tab completion is currently broken.
[Test Case]
$ ufw <tab><tab>
allow delete --dry-run --help logging reset status
app deny enable insert reject route version
default disable --force limit reload show
With an unpatched ufw, tab completion only shows the files in the
current directory, which is meaningless for ufw.
[Regression Potential]
Risk of regression is considered very low since tab completion is
totally broken and correct functionality is easily tested.
= Original description =
bash completion, defined in /usr/share/bash-
completion/completions/ufw, doesn't work: the completion is not
dynamically loaded, because it uses deprecated helper function have().
According to /usr/share/bash-completions/bash_completion, which
defines the helper functions:
# Backwards compatibility for compat completions that use have().
# @deprecated should no longer be used; generally not needed with dynamically
# loaded completions, and _have is suitable for runtime use.
and at the end of the file:
unset -f have
unset have
which means: function have() is not available for usage. The bash
completion for ufw conditionally defines _ufw and the comspec:
have ufw &&
_ufw()
...
[ "$have" ] && complete -F _ufw ufw
These should be changed to:
_have ufw &&
_ufw()
...
_have ufw && complete -F _ufw ufw
