Not strictly speaking a debian question, I suppose, but... The last apt-get upgrade that I performed installed a new version of bash (2.05a.0(1)-release). Since this upgrade, I've discovered that tab completion of a symbolic link that points to a directory no longer automatically includes the trailing slash.
For example, on my disk /sourceforge -> /projects/sourceforge so if I type "/pro[tab]", I get "/projects/", but if I type "/sour[tab]", I get "/sourceforge" (without the trialing slash). If I type tab again, I get the trailing slash. (There's no file called sourceforge in /). This behavior is consistent on all symlinks to directories, and I find it exceptionally annoying. A quick scan of the man page doesn't reveal any option that obviously would effect this behavior (and why doesn't bash_2.05a-2_i386.deb include an info page, no, that's a separate issue :-) Is there a setting to "fix" this behavior?
