What mostly annoyed me with pacman bash completion is the lag/delay on
completing packages in pacman -S.
That clearly feels better after your patch, but I've noticed a funny
problem and different behavior.

I am sitting in my pacman git tree, and wanted to reinstall pacman :
$ pacman -S pac<tab>
after your patch :
$ sudo pacman -S pac
pacbuild           pacman-contrib     pacman-mirrorlist  paco
     pacpan             pacupdate
before :
$ sudo pacman -S pac
pacbuild           pacman/            pacman-contrib
pacman-mirrorlist  paco               pacpan             pacupdate

So actually I couldnt complete pacman with your patch, it proposed me
pacman- directly.
The old behavior didnt propose me pacman either, but since it
hesitated between pacman/ and pacman- , the completion stopped on
pacman which is the good package name :)

And this weird behavior is because I had a pacman dir in my PWD :
$ ls -ld pacman/
