[Bug 890913] Re: Typing "prg $HOME/" expands to "prg \$HOME/"
Maybe it has something to do with option settiings. Mathew, can you try with the following bash variables set to see if the problem appears for you?

Not fixed in Ubuntu 15.10. The problem occurs if completion expands to a name containing spaces. For example "Virtual Box VMs" in $HOME STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1. mkdir $HOME/'DIR WITH SPACES' 2. echo $HOME/DIR RESULTS: echo \$HOME/DIR\ WITH\ SPACES EXPECTED RESULTS: echo $HOME/DIR\ WITH\ SPACES $ apt-cache policy bash bash-completion bash: Installed: 4.3-14ubuntu1 Candidate: 4.3-14ubuntu1 Version table: *** 4.3-14ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status bash-completion: Installed: 1:2.1-4.1ubuntu2 Candidate: 1:2.1-4.1ubuntu2 Version table: *** 1:2.1-4.1ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/890913 Title: Typing "prg $HOME/" expands to "prg \$HOME/" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/890913/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

On Trusty, $ prg $HOME/fil produces $ prg /home/mathew/file.txt Is this still an issue?
