Package: bash-completion Version: 1:2.16.0-8 Severity: normal Forwarded: https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/pull/1639
Hi! I'd like to take over the dpkg bash-completions into dpkg upstream, I've submitted the above PR upstream for which I had created a related issue some time ago, to be able to unblock this. Ideally I'd include this in the next dpkg release (1.23.8), so this report is mainly for coordination purposes and to give a heads-up. I'll be adding Replaces, where ideally I'd like to know the version that will either drop the dpkg files from bash-completion or rename them as upstream. Given that in the Debian context dpkg is essential, dropping the files from bash-completion should not be a major concern, except that ideally bash-completions would then include a version dependency on dpkg, alternatively doing the rename as the above PR would avoid the need for a versioned dependency. Once the completions transfer is done, I'll either close the bash-completion reports related to dpkg if they are fixed or reassign them. Thanks, Guillem
