[Bug 526264] Re: sqlite3 completion restricted to .sqlite files

The additions do not include the .db extension (as the person who
replied to the upstream bug report mistakenly thought); only .sqlite,
.sqlite3, .s3, .s3db. I can't think of anyone who uses the two latter
ones.

Can someone try to submit a new upstream report with .db and .db3 as
additions. I wouldn't mind if they removed the .s3 and .s3db extensions,
as I doubt they are used.

For a quick workaround, add "complete -f -X '!*.@(db|sqlite)?(3)'
sqlite3" to ~/.bash_completion.

Title:
  sqlite3 completion restricted to .sqlite files

Status in “bash-completion” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bash-completion

  The following line is wrong, I think:
  /etc/bash_completion:complete -f -X '!*.sqlite' sqlite3

  There's no de-facto/common suffix for sqlite database files, and i haven't seen any that used the .sqlite suffix.
  So the completion directive makes it harder to use sqlite from the command line.
