Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.2-3
Severity: normal
NOTE: The attached /etc/bash_completion.d/tar fixes the bug by
commenting out the code which invokes the _tar function.
The bug exists when working with the /etc/bash_completion.d/tar file
installed by the package.
The bug is that when I start a 'tar zcvf tarfile.tgz ' command and want
to add filenames by tab-completing as much as possible, some files do
not appear in the lists of candidate files. So I have to type out the
full filename rather than do tab-completion on that filename.
I saw the bug also in Debian Lenny and fixed it there the same way.
