[Bug 1622987] Re: Auto-completion seems broken with umount command

[Brian Murray]

Using tab to complete the Ubuntu directory here I got the following:

[  3:39PM 12879 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/source-trees/update-notifier ]
 $ ls /media/bdmurray 
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS amd64
[  3:39PM 12880 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/source-trees/update-notifier ]
 $ umount /media/bdmurray/Ubuntu$'\001'6.04\ LTS\ amd64 
umount: /media/bdmurray/Ubuntu6.04 LTS amd64: No such file or directory

That was with zsh though, I switched to bash and it was fine.  What
shell are you using?

Title:
  Auto-completion seems broken with umount command

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm using Xubuntu with the devel version. I've seen this bug with
  Ubuntu also, in the daily version.

  The auto-completion of the command 'umount' seems broken.

  I have an usb key called "Xubuntu 16.10 amd64". I verify that with the
  command lsblk.

  Then, I type 'umount /media' then I press 'tab' to have the
  autocompletion. With 16.04, the autocompletion completes correctly
  with backslash : "/media/nairwolf/\ Xubuntu\ amd64"

  But, now, with Yakkety, the autocompletion stops before the first
  space.

  There is a screenshot to explain what I have :

  Don't forget that I'm typing only "umount /media", and then, I press
  tab to have the autocompletion. And this picture is the result of the
  auto-completion.

  I'm unable to reproduce that with other basic command like "ls", "cd"
  or "rm". That means if I'm typing "ls /media", then "TAB" it will be
  completed correctly.
