Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: bash
With Bash programable autocomplete (/etc/bash_completion), commands
within backquotes containing a space doesn't get autocompleted properly:
$ touch ~/some_file_`date -I`.txt
$ ls ~/some_file_`date -I`.txt
/home/gaby/some_file_2008-08-03.txt
So far this works, but if I press the <TAB> key at the end of the command:
$ ls ~/some_file`date /home/gaby/some_file_2008-08-03.txt
The autocompletion doesn't overwrite the whole argument and leaves
"~/some_file`date " in front of it.
This bug could be related to Bug #219406
PS: The backquotes feature works only with bash programmed completion
(/etc/bash_completion).
