Package: bash Version: 4.2+dfsg-0.1 Severity: normal Completion wrongly adds a \ before $ when special characters follow:
% mkdir test % touch test/a: % X=test % echo $X/<TAB> results in: % echo \$X/a\: with a wrong \ before $ which is not meant to be escaped but to refer to the variable X (as it is interpreted correctly during the completion, otherwise "a:" wouldn't have been found). It only happens if the completed file name contains a special character (here: ":", which actually isn't special to the shell and wouldn't need escaping AFAIK, but that's another issue ...) -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Versions of packages bash depends on: ii base-files 7.1wheezy4 ii dash 0.5.7-3 ii debianutils 4.3.2 ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u1 ii libtinfo5 5.9-10 Versions of packages bash recommends: ii bash-completion 1:2.0-1 Versions of packages bash suggests: pn bash-doc <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
