I've got an annoying problem with completion and sudo apt-get.
To give an example:
$ sudo apt-get in[Tab][Tab]
in intel_bios_reader
includeres intel_disable_clock_gating
indicator-multiload intel_dpio_read
info intel_dpio_write
infobrowser intel_error_decode
infocmp intel_forcewaked
infokey intel_gpu_abrt
infotocap intel_gpu_time
inimf intel_gpu_top
init intel_gtt
init-checkconf intel_l3_parity
initctl intel_reg_checker
initctl2dot intel_reg_dumper
initex intel_reg_read
inkscape intel_reg_snapshot
inkview intel_reg_write
inputattach intel_sprite_on
insmod intel_stepping
install intel_upload_blit_large
install-docs intel_upload_blit_large_gtt
installfont-tl intel_upload_blit_large_map
install-info intel_upload_blit_small
installkernel interdiff
--More--
While is working right both with just apt-get or doing it in root:
$ apt-get in[Tab]stall
$ sudo -i
[sudo] password for davide:
root@brenna:~# apt-get in[Tab]stall
So the problem is using autocompletion after sudo? Not really, because
$ sudo apt-[Tab][Tab]
apt-add-repository apt-extracttemplates apt-key
apt-cache apt-file apt-mark
apt-cdrom apt-ftparchive apt-sortpkgs
apt-config apt-get
Summing up, the problem seems to be using sudo and auto-completion for programs options together.
Any good advice for that?
