Description Zdenek Pytela 2016-07-01 15:13:31 UTC
Description of problem:
bash completion for the more command does not parse files containing spaces properly


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bash-completion-2.1-6.el7.noarch


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. touch "hello world"
2. more h<tab> <tab>


Actual results:
$ more h
hello  world


Expected results:
$ more hello\ world


Additional info:
in RHEL 6 (epel based package) and Fedora this works as expected
in RHEL 7, for example cat and less work fine; even with default minimal completion it works better

$ complete -p more
complete -F _more_module more
$ complete -p less
complete -F _longopt less
$ complete -p cat
complete -F _longopt cat

$ complete -r less
$ complete -p less
complete -F _minimal less
$ less hello\ world
<works>

Completions for more command are provided by util-linux package. Reassigning to util-linux component.

This issue should be fixed by backporting https://git.kernel.org/cgit/utils/util-linux/util-linux.git/commit/?id=ce3e6b15e2c4478b2df9a7016c168b16325abfb0
