Oops, I should have been more clear. Although there's no such entry in my
.bashrc, and also none in /etc/skel/.bashrc, but bash completion *works*
without flaw both in login shells as well as in interactive shells, I
assume there doesn't need to be such entry in there.
Are you talking about the normal tab completion or the "smart" bash
completion?
The "smart" one. For example typing "emerge --de" and hitting TAB twice
shows:
--debug --deep --depclean
If your /etc/skel/.bashrc doesn't have an entry for bash completion but
your ~/.bashrc does, then I guess it's not needed anymore but probably
was needed a long time ago. AFAIK, updates won't change files in your
$HOME so over time it tends to accumulate obsolete stuff.
