Bug Description
Binary package hint: ack-grep
When using the provided bash_completion package for ack-grep, pressing 'ack-grep /et<tab>' expands to 'ack-grep /etc/ ' (note the extra space). This requires the user to insert a backspace before tabbing further down the filesystem hierarchy.
Seen on 10.04.

Also on 11.04 with other commands, i.e. ls /et<tab>; cat /et<tab>; rm /et<tab>.
