Description Boris Petersen 2010-09-28 19:16:47 UTC

app-shells/bash-completion-1.2 uses a wrong syntax in it's service script

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. source bash-completion with service module enabled
Actual Results:  
the syntax error occurs in line 34, the call "complete -F _service -o default" ends in: complete: usage: complete [-abcdefgjksuv] [-pr] [-DE] [-o option] [-A action] [-G globpat] [-W wordlist]  [-F function] [-C command] [-X filterpat] [-P prefix] [-S suffix] [name ...]

Expected Results:  
the service module should use the right syntax.

I couldn't find a documentation of the complete syntax though i'm not able to provide a solution.

You should really file this upstream. http://bash-completion.alioth.debian.org/

Comment 2 Boris Petersen 2010-09-28 19:48:29 UTC

this is now upstream bug #312728 (see url)

Comment 3 Cyprien Nicolas (fulax) 2010-09-28 20:01:35 UTC

It looks like it has already been reported [1] and fixed in git [2]

[1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=586210
[2] http://git.debian.org/?p=bash-completion/bash-completion.git;a=commit;h=1f8b55a92aba6d03bb4c43dade1f8b2e2b847b61

Maybe a backport of that patch is feasible?

Comment 4 Boris Petersen 2010-09-29 17:23:43 UTC

the upstream patch wfm. would be cool if it could be included in portage
