Public bug reported:

After typing ipset (and a space of course) I always get various syntax
error messages if I press key TAB for completion. Interestingly I get
different errors on different machines, for example:

18.04 server:

# ipset
So I typed "ipset" and a space, and when I press TAB, I see this:
# ipset bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;;'

18.04 xubuntu install:

# ipset
again, I typed "ipset" and space, and I pressed TAB:
# ipset bash: syntax error in conditional expression

18.04 ubuntu install:

(the same as before, when I press tab)
# ipset bash: syntax error in conditional expression
bash: syntax error near `213_stat'

(213_stat is maybe a file name by the way, since I have a file named
213_stat in the current working directory)

By the way, this also applies when I'm different context of the command,
ie:

# ipset save
"ipset save" and a space, pressing space:
# ipset save bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;;'

It seems, if the current command line is anything to do with ipset, it
causes errors on trying completion
