[gentoo-user] Bash completion annoyance: escapes directory variables.
Hello all. Now, I am unsure whether this is a feature, but: when I tab-complete 'cd ' followed an environment variable, bash insists on escaping this variable. ex: cd $TAB - cd \$ Which means I end up typing for example # cd \$DOC and this is not resolved right. If the variable path is not preceded by 'cd ' , bash completes it OK, without escaping them. Is there any way I can fix this behaviour ? Thanks for your tips.
Re: [gentoo-user] Bash completion annoyance: escapes directory variables.
2009/1/17 Stroller strol...@stellar.eclipse.co.uk: I don't know much about this, but I wonder if it may be related to some of Gentoo's 3rd-party Bash-completion features? I have unmerged gentoo-bashcomp, but the problem remains. So, this would put the blame on bash-completion. I am using bash-completion-20060301. Following your message, I have upgraded to latest (unstable) bash-completion-20081218 *and this solved the original problem* : tab-completion now does not escape variables after 'cd' ! BUT (there had to be a 'but') ... gentoo-bashcomp does not play well with this latest version, meaning that after re-installing bashcomp, completion does not work after gentoo commands (emerge, ebuild ...). So, I think I will get back to bash-completion-20060301, and use cdb instead of path variables. Thanks for attention and suggestions. You might also check bash-completion USE flags. # equery uses app-shells/bash-completion [ Searching for packages matching app-shells/bash-completion... ] [ Colour Code : set unset ] [ Legend : Left column (U) - USE flags from make.conf ] [: Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ] [ No USE flags found for app-shells/bash-completion-20060301]
Re: [gentoo-user] Bash completion annoyance: escapes directory variables.
2009/1/18 Peter Alfredsen loki_...@gentoo.org: Did you try using unstable gentoo-bashcomp too? Yes, exact same result, meaning gentoo specific completion is disabled. Does it work for you folks ?

Any ideas where its supposed to symlink ? #gentoo is not very helpful ( at least the peers ) /etc/portage should be a directory, not a symlink. This is where you create package.keywords to enable ~ARCH builds, package.unmask to enable explicitly masked packages, package.use to set per-package USE flags, etc. The symlink you're thinking of is /etc/make.profile and it should point to something like /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop. Calculating dependencies \ emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy =app-office/openoffice-bin-2.0.2. As a general rule, I always run revdep-rebuild with -p and ignore any gripes about openoffice-bin. Openoffice-bin comes with a lot of private libraries the supercede those in /usr/lib and reddep-rebuild doesn't know how to resolve those correctly. There's no ebuild for openoffice-bin-2.0.2 because that release is no longer in portage. Running emerge -u openoffice-bin will upgrade you to 2.1.0 which is currently the only open office binary release in portage. Running ldd on /usr/bin/firefox won't give any useful information since that is just a script that runs mozilla-launcher with the real binary. Instead, run ldd on /usr/lib/mozilla-firefor/firefox-bin which is the actual binary. You should not get any 'not found' messages.
