Title:
  completion broken for "export"

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

Bug description:
  I initially asked a question about this on Ask Ubuntu:
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/317667/tab-completing-directories-when-
  exporting-variables-in-bash-4-2

  
  The problem is that when I try to complete while exporting a variable that contains a directory name, I get the following:
  $ export VAR=/home/w<TAB>
  $ export /home/wds

  While correct behaviour would give me:
  $ export VAR=/home/wds

  The completion is handled by the script in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/export, which installs a function _export, seen when running complete -p export which gives:
  complete -F _export export

  Remove the bash-completion package solves the problem, but of course
  I'm now missing all those other completions I might want.
