Note: in contrast, on Ubuntu 10.04 with GNU bash, version 4.1.5(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu)
I do not get the backslash: repro: sudo mv /etc/bash_completion /etc/bash_completion.backup sudo mv /etc/bash_completion.d /etc/bash_completion.d.backup env -i HOME=$HOME DISPLAY="$DISPLAY" xterm -e bash --login --noprofile --norc in new xterm: bash-4.2$ cd $HOME<tab> bash-4.2$ cd $HOME <cursor> <--- just adds a space (same as Ubuntu 12.04) bash-4.2$ cd $HOME/<tab> bash-4.2$ cd /home/acorn/ <--- no bug! expands as expected! bash-4.2$ xyz $HOME/<tab> bash-4.2$ xyz /home/acorn <--- no bug! expands as expected! So maybe this is a regression in bash itself? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177243 Title: Bash command completion puts backslash in front of beginning dollar sign To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/177243/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
