Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bash-completion-2.1-6.el7 How reproducible: everytime Steps to Reproduce: # ls $HOM -> click TAB # ls $HOME<space> Actual results: # ls $HOME<space> Expected results: # ls $HOME/ Additional info: "shopt -u progcomp" will do the job but it will disable auto-completion well. --- Additional comment from Red Hat Bugzilla Rules Engine on 2017-10-20 06:06:06 UTC --- Since this bug report was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release. --- Additional comment from Siteshwar Vashisht on 2017-10-24 14:17:22 UTC --- It is still not supported by upstream, so it needs to be implemented in upstream first before it is backported to RHEL. --- Additional comment from Siteshwar Vashisht on 2018-01-04 10:14:11 UTC --- Upstream issue: https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/issues/171 --- Additional comment from kyoneyama on 2019-05-29 10:58:18 UTC --- Hello, The same bug#1505938 for fedora28 has been closed due to EOL.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 30 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 30 on 2020-05-26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '30'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 30 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
