• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stuart W. Finlayson 2010-08-22 04:37:00 UTC]

For some reason app-shells/bash-completion-1.2 does not complete for kill and killall.


Here's my emerge --info:

[Comment 1 Michael Weber (RETIRED) 2010-08-24 22:02:03 UTC]

Did this ever work on any version/distribution?

[Comment 2 Stuart W. Finlayson 2010-08-25 05:36:32 UTC]

It worked with app-shells/bash-completion-1.1-r5 fine.

[Comment 3 Pacho Ramos 2010-09-07 13:29:25 UTC]

I also suffer this one, if I run:

# eselect bashcomp enable procps --global

as root, it works for root, but still fails for the rest of users

[Comment 4 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) 2010-09-07 16:22:55 UTC]

The expected behavior is to complete the PID, right?

kill(1) completion is in util-linux.
killall(1) completion is in procps.

%% cd /usr/share/bash-completion/
%% grep kill.*\( *
dsniff:_tcpkill()
procps:# killall(1) (Linux and FreeBSD) and pkill(1) completion.
procps:_killall()
rfkill:_rfkill()
util-linux:# kill(1) completion
util-linux:_kill()

User error:  # eselect bashcomp enable --global procps <- proper syntax

I don't think "eselect bashcomp --help" output is ok then:
# eselect bashcomp --help
Manage contributed bash-completion scripts
Usage: eselect bashcomp <action> <options>
...

Then, I thought "--global" option should be put after "action", I didn't even get any error when running it :-/
