Looking at the aforementioned patch, it appears that it was made by Juan Ciarlante to fix this bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=739835 However, it also introduced the bug described in the current bug report. Using the unpatched, upstream version of bash-completion, I still cannot reproduce the #739835 Debian bug in Ubuntu 14.04. Maybe Juan's patch is not necessary any longer? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #739835 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=739835 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1312243 Title: error messages completing args inside $() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/1312243/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
