Public bug reported: Binary package hint: bash
see http://www.nabble.com/Fwd%3A-Problem-with-bash-completion- tt16019987.html (initial message pasted below) this happens to me (and i'm pretty sure that in a different scenario than the one described below) and is very annoying. can you please update the bash package to the one where this bug doesn't happen? from the thread: From: David Rothenberger Subject: Problem with bash completion Sometimes bash gets confused and starts adding a slash at the end of files when I do tab-completion. Here's a simple reproduction script: ~ > bash --noprofile --norc -i bash-3.2$ mkdir /tmp/bash-problem bash-3.2$ cd /tmp/bash-problem bash-3.2$ mkdir d bash-3.2$ touch x bash-3.2$ chmod 755 x bash-3.2$ ./x <---- tab after x completes correctly bash-3.2$ ./d/ <---- ditto with d bash: ./d/: is a directory bash-3.2$ "$(ls ./d/)" <---- pressed tab after d bash: : command not found bash-3.2$ ./x/ <---- tab after x now adds slash Once the shell starts doing this, it keeps doing it. Restarting bash solves the problem. ** Affects: bash (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Problem with bash completion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229876 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
