[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#742466: File & line where the error is printed

[Julien Jorge]

Hi,

I encounter this bug too. The error occurs at line 560
of /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion.

For example, with bash launched with the -x option, the command below
produces the following output.

    $ echo $(find [TAB]

Output:

    + _quote_readline_by_ref '$(find ' quoted
    + '[' -z '$(find ' ']'
    + [[ $(find  == \'* ]]
    + [[ $(find  == ~* ]]
    + printf -v quoted %q '$(find '
    + [[ \$\(find\  == *\\* ]]
    + printf -v quoted %s '$(find '
    + [[ $(find  == \$* ]]                 # line 560
    + eval 'quoted=$(find '
    bash: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `)'
    bash: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Regards,

Julien
