Public bug reported: Bash completion causes the shell to lockup when completing command lines for the TAR command. The following sequence of commands shows the problem:
# starting in an empty directory mkdir foo touch foo/bar touch foo/bak tar -cvf foo.tar <tab> tar --acls -cvf foo.tar <tab> After the last tab the shell is locked up permanently and is no longer usable. This only seems to happen when the --acls option is specified, though it may affect others too (I have only tried --acls). ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1426107 Title: Shell lockup with on tab completion of tar with --acls option Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Bash completion causes the shell to lockup when completing command lines for the TAR command.
