The shell builtin command return can be used to exit early from a file sourced with . or source.
bash_completion could protect itself from being re-sourced by doing type __reassemble_comp_words_by_ref 2>/dev/null && return Or maybe complete -p paste 2>/dev/null && return So complete -r; source /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion would re-load. This still violates the expectation that users might have that if they changed stuff in /etc/bash_completion.d, they could just re-source the system bash_completion script. Maybe complete -p paste 2>/dev/null && echo "completions already loaded, complete -r before sourcing if you want them re-loaded" >&2 && return -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/790043 Title: Bash-completion slows up the start of bash To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/790043/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
