Hi, everytime I run a utility from the lvm2 toolkit and intuitivly press tab to complete the device name in the command I get the following error: root@workstation [/home/ruben] lvextend -L30G /deawk: {if ($2 ~ /^/de/) print $2} awk: ^ syntax error Any idea? Regards Ruben Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.run a lvm2 utility 2.start to write the device path '/dev' 3.hit tabulator for tab completion Actual Results: awk prints a syntax error Expected Results: device path should be completed
Which gawk and bash-completion versions are you using?
sys-apps/gawk-3.1.4-r4 is installed. bash-completion is not installed. Needed in this case? I just mean the builtin tab completion of bash, not the extra command completion that includes bash-completion.
Thanks, you pointed me to the right direction. Actually bash-completion seems to be needed. Installig it fixed my problem. Thanx Ruben
