Title:
  Smarter lib* aware autocompletion?

Status in bash-completion package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  This patch has lead to serious errors (comments #6, #7) and has clearly never been tested.  It should be reverted (debdiff in comment #8).
  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49227213/bash-completion_1.1-3ubuntu3_revert.debdiff

  [ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:]
  Binary package hint: apt

  Wouldn't it be nice if when typing

  apt-get install clu [press tab]

  showed libclutter-* etc...

  If the autocomplete was just capable of ignoring this common prefix,
  it would be easier to find a lot of things
