Description Róbert Čerňanský 2010-09-05 12:34:26 UTC

When trying to complete options for an /etc/init.d/* script, it completes only "extra" options, not the standard ones.

For example:

# /etc/init.d/iptables <TAB><TAB>
panic   reload  save

But iptables script has also standard options like start, stop, restart, pause and zap however these are not offered by the bash completion.

Tested on stable amd64 with app-shells/gentoo-bashcomp-20090613 and sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.13.

Expected result is that bash completion will offer all possible options for init scripts. So for above example it would look like:

# /etc/init.d/iptables <TAB><TAB>
start stop restart pause zap panic reload save

confirmed. It is only for init scripts *with* extra options though.
