incorrect completion for new upstart commands

[Alvin Thompson]

Binary package hint: bash-completion

Upstart adds four new commands for controlling services: "status", "start", "stop", and "restart". On lines beginning with these commands, bash-completion should offer the list of services, similar to how the "service" command currently does. For example, starting a line with:

$ sudo status g

and pressing the TAB key should offer "gdm" and any other services beginning with the letter 'g' (grub-common). Currently completion offers files in the current directory starting with 'g'.

This is still an issue in ubuntu 10.10 ! will it be the same in maverick ?

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Seems to work correctly now.
