Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.0-2
Severity: normal


Hi,

Try this:

touch "filename with spaces"
svk add filen<TAB>

The completion I get is "svk add filename with spaces". Note that the
completion does not escape the spaces in the filename. When you try to run
the command, svk looks for the files "filename", "with", and "spaces" and,
of course, fails.

You should expect the completion to be "svk add filename\ with\ spaces" like
everything else.

Peace,
Brendon
