Description Robert Scheck 2023-04-23 00:28:28 UTC
IcedTea-Web is absent in Fedora for a couple of releases now, but bash-completion-2.11-9.fc38 still ships a completion file for it (while IcedTea-Web ships its own completion file if installed manually; latter even leads to a file conflict then).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -qvl bash-completion | grep /javaws
Actual Results:  
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/javaws

Expected Results:  
No more /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/javaws

Is IcedTea-Web installing completions under `/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/`? Custom bash completions should be installed under `/etc/bash_completion.d/` directory.

In any case, I am fine with removing completions for `javaws`, if it is not shipped with Fedora.

Comment 3 Robert Scheck 2023-06-16 10:22:52 UTC
The new icedtea-web RPM in Fedora installs its bash-completion file under /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ - like other RPM packages in Fedora. /etc/bash_completion.d/ is meant for system administrators or can be used by software from other origins (than the distribution itself).

Looks good.

Comment 5 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 08:09:06 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
