> Did you mean ln -s /tmp /tmpX ?

Sorry. Yes I meant   ln -s /tmp  /tmpX.
Thanks for pointing me to do tests as non root.
I usually don't work on the desktop but only do admin tasks over ssh.

We have a link  /applics -> /nfs/AppServer/applics on all our clients.
If I do as regular user:  ls /applics<TAB>   or ll /applics<TAB> , I get a '/' 
appended as expected in both cases
If I do as root:   ls /applics<TAB>  I also get the '/' appended
  but if I do as root:  ll /applics<TAB>  I get a space appended

Our site has about 250  hosts with HP-UX, RH9, RHEL4, RHEL5, ubuntu 10,
ubuntu 12 and ubuntu 14 (all in LTS) and the described problem only
occurred with the arrival of ubuntu 14.
