We are removing some of the completions installed by bash-completion, and I'm thinking of extending that list. Here's some bug to collect ideas for what should be removed. So far: 1. cal dmesg eject hd hexdump hwclock ionice look ncal renice rtcwake Those were removed originally because they are included in util-linux now. 2. explodepkg installpkg makepkg pkgtool removepkg upgradepkg Those are Slackware packaging tools. I doubt someone is using them on Gentoo and the names are generic enough to collide. For example, sys-apps/pacman installs makepkg (yes, we need to teach Arch not to use generic names as well). 3. ifdown ifup ifstatus That's some fancy Debian/Red Hat stuff. I don't think they are useful for Gentoo. 4. arch (and possibly other mailman tools) The bash-completion's 'arch' tool is for mailman arch and not coreutils arch, so it collides hard. Another thing is that our mailman tools are installed in /usr/lib*/mailman/bin and the completions rely on mailmanctl being in $PATH.
Nothing is happening here for a long time.
