[arch-general] dd and bash_completion
Hi all, i noticed that bash_completion and dd do not work together. Tiping dd if=/h<TAB> will not complete to if=/home. Without bash_completion everything works fine. Maybo someone knows how to fix this? Tom -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments

here it works fine. Does your problem occur only with dd ? or does bash_completion do not work in general on your machine ?

Same here. If you come up with a fix, tell me.
I have the same problems. Maybe it is a good design? After all, dd is a danger cmd ............ On 2009-09-24 09:27:35, Thomas B鋍hler wrote:

It is supposed to work if you look at /etc/bash_completion and search for _dd.
Hello all, I can confirm this behaviour, so it doesn't work for me either. I switched to zsh and the grml-config... but if you have a solution I would be also very interested in. Regards

I just tried it (never used dd) and it only kind of works here, maybe that's the reason for the different experiences? If I 'dd <space> <tab> <tab>' I get: $ dd --help bs= conv= ibs= obs= seek= --version cbs= count= if= of= skip= What I don't get is any completion after 'dd if=' And one strange thing is that 'dd if <tab> <tab>' completes to: 'dd if\=' Regards

Probably because you lost bash completion ? Before this update, bash completion was enabled by default only for login shells. After this update, only for non login shells. But after this change which was just made into svn, it should be enabled for both by default : http://repos.archlinux.org/viewvc.cgi/bash/trunk/profile.bash?r1=1&r2=52872&sortby=date About dd completion problems, maybe someone should try last git code : http://git.debian.org/?p=bash-completion/bash-completion.git;a=summary And if it does not work, report a bug there : http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?atid=413095&group_id=100114&func=browse

Uh! You're right, thanks.

Wrong. /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh still exists and is executed for login shells.

Yeah, I removed it in 1.0-3 because it was duplicated effort. profile.bash should now source bash.bashrc (just needs a bash rebuild, which I didn't think was necessary for such a minor thing).

Found the issue. It's not dd specific at all, it has to do with bash's setting of the COMP_WORDBREAKS $ echo $COMP_WORDBREAKS "'><=;|&(: These are word separators for completion words. The command "dd if=<tab>" contains 3 completion words - "dd", "if", and "=" with the current word being "=".

Ah, well obviously it's more complicated than I though. The point is, that the COMP_WORDBREAKS setting, is splitting "if=" into "if" and "=", which doesn't match the case statement. If we want to fix this just for dd, we need to match the "=" and then get the previous word in COMP_WORDS prev="${COMP_WORDS[$(($COMP_CWORD -1))]}" Aaaaand... that doesn't work. I dunno, this is confusing, but the point is, it's splitting on the "if=" and thus can never complete as is

I tried many things earlier today, looking at other completion files, trying to use prev, splitting on =, etc. But I did not figure out the COMP_WORDBREAKS thing (the word caught a bit my attention but I did not look further). So maybe the changes I did in combination to that setting would have worked better, I am not sure. Though at the end of my experiment, I actually got a behavior very similar to what Thomas just reported. I think we need a bash completion expert :) I tried to contact the two dev about this problem but I don't know if they are active and responsive.

Strange, for me the completion works fine: $ dd if=/h<tab> $ dd if=/home The only thing is I'm not using the package bash-completion, but bash completion works anyway for me. Maybe someone could try to remove bash-completion package and try again. Armando

It's known to work fine WITHOUT bash-completion. Normally bash will only complete filenames. When using bash-completion, which provides better completions for things, it fails. The bug was found and fixed in bash-completion's git repo

This might be a good idea. Or maybe they plan to release 1.1 soon and do more frequent releases in the future ? Anyway we can discuss there : http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16538

Which abs package ? The one in extra is the stable release 1.0 : http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/bash-completion/ And this is the package aaron maintains. He also hosts a git clone of the official git repo, but it's a clone so yes it should contains the same commit ids :)

I never said I cloned from there to build the package. You made that assumption. That repo is solely for tracking purposes if I feel like making bug fixes. I linked to it because it was easier for me

Hi all,
i noticed that bash_completion and dd do not work together. Tiping dd if=/h<TAB> will not complete to if=/home. Without bash_completion everything works fine. Maybo someone knows how to fix this?
After these updates: [2009-09-24 13:23] upgraded bash (4.0.028-1 -> 4.0.033-1) [2009-09-24 13:23] upgraded bash-completion (1.0-2 -> 1.0-3) completion of file/directory names after if= works here.
The completion of the dd command line options doesn't work.
The difference is in the bash package: We now also load bash_completion by default in non-login shells, while it only happened for login-shells before.
