Grub and GLib both install bash completion scripts. Need to add
something to the default /etc/profile in the book to take advantage of them.
Additionally, the one for grub is broken currently looking for a have()
function, which for distros is usually defined in /etc/bash_completion.
So, I'd suggest to add a /etc/bash_completion file with the following
commands:
cat > /etc/bash_completion << "EOF" &&
#!/bin/bash
# Begin /etc/bash_completion
have()
{
unset -v have
PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin type $1 &>/dev/null &&
have="yes"
}
# Pull in additional completion scripts
for script in /etc/bash_completion.d/* ; do
if [ -r "${script}" ] ; then
. "${script}"
fi
done
unset script
# End /etc/bash_completion
EOF
chmod 644 /etc/bash_completion
And then source the /etc/bash_completion file from the default /etc/profile.
Also, what of /etc/profile.d/ for LFS? Best continued to be left for
BLFS? I would consider it nice to have in a default installation, but
there is nothing that uses it until the 4th package into BLFS for me.
