Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:2.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Debian's bash-completion (not upstream) is broken when 'nounset' is set.  This 
should not happen.  Bash 4.2 includes a [[ -v var ]] test, or a variety of 
alternatives are described at:  http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/083

Example (trying to complete from '/et'):

$ set -u
$ cd /et-bash: !ref: unbound variable
-bash: !ref: unbound variable
-bash: words[i]: unbound variable
$

This should have behaved exactly the same as if 'nounset' was not set.
