[Bug 196021] Re: include bash-completion by default in hardy
Murat, thanks for the information. However, as I said above I will not spend any time trying to get bash-completion into main. My time to spend on bash-completion is limited and I'd rather fix the bugs and get them upstream (or assume maintainership). It does not make sense to fix these bugs just in Ubuntu, that's just what I happen to be using, and getting the updated package in was easy enough. But I see my time better spend fixing the bugs and getting upstream maintainance going again. That way all distributions benefit from the fixes. So to repeat: If anyone wants to have bash-completion in the default install, he will have to do the necessary things himself, because I won't do it (I'll help if I can, obviously). As for the Main inclusion process. I'm not sure it's necessary, since bash-completion has been in main forever and was just moved to universe as a result of the package split that was done very recently. So maybe it'll be easier to get it back into main than normal packages. -- include bash-completion by default in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree too - it's a really, really nice feature that helps novices and also helps to convince experts that Ubuntu is a nice distribution.

[Bug 196021] Re: include bash-completion by default in hardy
I try to actively maintain the Ubuntu package and I think after the last upload it is in pretty good shape (before that it was rather broken). I'm in the process of fixing a few more bugs and also rewriting some things that could be done more robustly. I'm also trying to get in contact with Ian Macdonald (the upstream author) to discuss the future of the project, but I haven't heard back from him yet. In any case there's someone taking care of the package in Ubuntu, so unmaintainedness is not a good reason against including it by default. On the other hand I don't really know what to do to get it installed by default. So if anyone cares to work on getting bash_completion into the default install, please do. -- include bash-completion by default in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 196021] Re: include bash-completion by default in hardy
Hi Åskar, while what you say is definitely true, the real question is who to poke and what process to follow to get bash to depend on it. And actually I'd rather suggest that ubuntu-standard recommend it so that people can remove it if they're bothered. In any case I think that bash-completion would need to be in main for that. On the other hand it has been in main for a long time before it was split out of the bash package, so that might not be a big problem. I'm just saying I'm not really sure how to proceed and I'd rather spend time fixing bugs than figure out the necessary process to follow :) -- include bash-completion by default in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Savvas, as I said above, I'm de-facto the maintainer for Ubuntu, having fixed the most annoying bugs in the last upload and fixing most of the others in the next. I'd also consider taking over upstream maintainership but I'd like to talk to the current upstream maintainer about that first. He is very busy unfortunately and I've failed to get a response... But for all practical matters the package is being maintained at least within Ubuntu... -- include bash-completion by default in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Good to know that, I have noticed that the package got updated several times in the alpha period but the version says: 20060301-3ubuntu1 - that's why I thought it wasn't maintained. My fault about that, really sorry :) Well, if that's the case then I don't see a reason not to include it.

Since bash-completion is now in a separate package, it should be a dependency of bash (not only recommended).

[Bug 196021] Re: include bash-completion by default in hardy
I do strongly agree... Installing packages and working fast on the commandline without autocompletion since Alpha 5 is a mess... I first thought it would be a bug and looked up all my bashrc config files but autocompletion was enabled per-user already. I tried enabling it in the global /etc/bash.bashrc but nothing happened. Fortunately I found this bug report after a lot searching in launchpad. To mention: before doing anything bash completed the first command typed in (e.g sudo), but the following one seemed to be interpreted as parameter and therefore did not autocomplete (e.g. apt-get). After installing bash-completion everything worked fine again. Suggestion: if this is really needed to be done give a hint on it or some comment in the release notes, etc...

Yes, please do include it again.
