Description

This "feature" was introduced in bash-2.05b-alpha1.
In bash-2.05b/CHANGES:
i. Fixed the command name completion code so a slash is no longer appended
to a single match if there happens to be a directory with that name in
$PWD.
I hope this will be reverted.
Ah, this brought me on the right track, somehow I thought this was a RH specific bug, but it is generic. Searching Google revealed this patch on the bug-bash list: http://www.geocrawler.com/lists/3/GNU/342/0/9185278/ I tried it and it works fine for me. Should be fixed in bash-2.05b-6. *** Bug 76869 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 77535 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** If you used the patch Franz pointed to, this will still be broken.

It's a bug, partially fixed by patch bash205b-003. This patch fixes cases that start with "~", ".", or "/". Other cases, like foo/bar<TAB> without a leading "./", still get a space appended. paul Confirmed. *** Bug 77796 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 77796 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 78037 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Still bronken in Phoebe. Please try 2.05b-16, which will shortly appear in rawhide. *** Bug 84058 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2003-140.html I wonder why this bug is closed, if one variant of it (see comment #6) # subdir/subd[TAB] # subdir/subdir[SPACE]_ instead of # subdir/subdir/_ is still present (at least in 2.05b-r9) Tobias In 3.00.16 it seems to be fixed.
