Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.3-3
Severity: important


This is a regression, it used to be possible to complete pretty much any
file. Now only directories are completed for vi, or some very unusual
files I don't have.

To fix this I had to comment out the line

complete -f -X
'*.@(o|so|so.!(conf)|a|[rs]pm|gif|jp?(e)g|mp6|mp?(e)g|avi|asf|ogg|class)'
vi vim gvim rvim view rview rgvim rgview gview emacs xemacs sxemacs kate
kwrite

I am not sure what it is supposed to do but it definitely breaks editor
completion making them totally unusable from bash.
