A long time ago I remember having a patch for that putting multiple paths inside BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR. But at that time and given Gentoo's script, I finally was able to do it simply using a combination of BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR + BASH_COMPLETION_DIR.
Now I found that using bash-completion 2.0 of Debian, BASH_COMPLETION_DIR does not exist anymore so I'm left with only BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR. The issue is that I've custom completions (experimental or for personal alias or functions) and those go in ~/.bash_completion.d In the meantime, BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR is setup to the default value of /etc/bash_completion.d which is useful too. I want completions from all of: * ~/.bash_completion.d * /etc/bash_completion.d * /usr/share/bash-completion/completions ... to be available. Unless I'm mistaken there is no more solution to this. Would you accept a change in the way BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR is handled (eg colon-separated paths list ?) or any alternative solution for this ? regards _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list Bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
