@Ken Blackburn: Probably better to create a new bug report, even if you think this is a regression. (Probably link to this old bug report in the new one.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Upgraded to 20.04 and this issue has appeared. I've used variables DD=/mnt/Ddisk since I been using Ubuntu, at least 14.04. vi $DD/misc/filena worked consistently until 20.04.1 release. This release is the first time that this has occurred. It seems to have been unfixed in this release.

I'm seeing this on Ubuntu 12.04. (I installed beta2 a couple of weeks ago and have applied all updates since then). I have commented out the entire body of /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh (due to a different issue). With a newly created account, no changes to any $HOME/.* files : $ uname -a

The backslash is gone in karmic, but the behavior is not fixed. With the karmic (and upstream debian) bash-completion package, environment variables still do not expand. $ cd $HOMEtab $HOME As others have noted, simply removing $filenames breaks the expansion. For me, the behavior of $dirnames

Yes. I think it's bug of bash_completion in /etc. If you turn it off in your .bashrc, no this problem. Once you turn it on, it happens. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy on Dell XPS M1530. I fix this one by editing this file.
