I checked my Ubuntu 14.04 machine and the problem is not solved yet.
Run this command:
strace bash -c ". /etc/bash_completion; quote_readline '/something'; echo" 2>&1
| grep /etc/passwd
When the problem is solved you should get no output and now you get this output:
open("/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
The output indicates that it tries to expand the ~ and this is not what
was intended and if some kind of network authentication is used it will
cause long delays... sometimes more then 10 seconds... so this is a
serious problem.
Please apply the patch I provided 7 months ago when I reported this
problem or test the fix they did upstream.
