Bug Description

Binary package hint: autopano-sift

In all source files/changelog we talk about "autopano-complete.sh"
But this file is renamed at the installation to "autopano-complete"

Tools like Hugin are searching for "autopano-complete.sh" and in this case fail to complete.

Many files are described in documentations/man pages with ".sh" extension, so users have to find this files, and we should not rename then.

In fact, as Gauvain pointed me :
"When scripts are installed into a directory in the system PATH, the script name should not include an extension such as .sh or .pl that denotes the scripting language currently used to implement it." (debian policy § 10.4)

So i will contact authors to see if they can make the changes
