Package in question: bash_3.0-14_i386.deb
It is rarely that i use the tab completion, but when i do, its mostly
for things like this.
Today i ran across a little problem. When i tried to tab-complete for
interfaces on my laptop computer, trying to bring the wireless card up,
i got this reply: bash: _interfaces: command not found
I then looked through the file (grep -r interfaces /etc/bash_complet*)
to find any references to _interfaces, and didnt find its definition,
only its use.
I then made a backup of my /etc/bash_completion, and changed two lines
that called _interfaces, to call _available_interfaces instead.
Bash interface completion now works as expected.
Here is the patch:
