Bugs item #311405, was opened at 30/01/2009 10:16
Status: Open
Priority: 2
Submitted By: David Paleino (hanska-guest)
Assigned to: Nobody (None)
Summary: DBTS 501839: don't use uname for iw{config,list,spy,priv}, just check
for their presence
Distribution: None
Originally reported in: Debian BTS
Milestone: None
Original bug number: 501839
Initial Comment:
* Completion for the commands iwconfig, iwlist, iwspy, iwpriv, [..]
[..] depends on a uname of Linux. While these commands indeed
do run only on Linux, it seems better to simply check for the
commands in question rather than the kernel in use. That way, if
the commands ever run on non-Linux systems, bash-completion will not
need updating. For instance, other systems have a "route" command
which behaves similarly, though I do not know if the existing
completions will work unmodified on it.
