Description Stephen Finucane 2024-10-31 16:12:30 UTC

As noted on the ag issue tracker [1], the completion script provided with ag is not compatible with the most recent version of bash-completion including that in Fedora 41. This results in the following error output when attempting to tab complete:

  ❯ ag readbash: _split_longopt: command not found                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
  README.rst

I suspect the solution here is to either (a) temporarily include the proposed bug fix [2] pending its merge or (b) take the fact that no patches have merged to ag in over 4 years as a sign that it's time to kick-off the deprecation and removal of the package from Fedora :(

Personally, I have patched the completion script at `/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ag` and will resolve the conflict if/when dnf prompts me to.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install `ag`
2. Attempt to tab-complete a filename

Actual Results:  
ag readbash: _split_longopt: command not found
