If there's a bug or an enhancement the user should send a patch and not keep the modification locally. If the user needs completion for a local private command then just load the configuration in the user created /etc file, but keep the original in usr to ease upgrades. This way the system should load completion from /usr then local enhancements from /etc and lastly user completion (possibly loaded using .bash* files) (I also think Debian conffiles idea sucks but let's not get into that now. I'm leaving that for later) Prueba el Nuevo Correo Terra; Seguro, Rápido, Fiable.
