Bug Description
Binary package hint: bash-completion
after upgrading to natty today I discovered a strange behaviour of bash-completion.
when using several commands like less or cp the completion ends at the first directory.
Example:
cp /et<TAB>
should deliver
cp /etc/
but instead i get
cp /etc <-- ending with a space
same with less
less /etc
but it works with more
more /etc/
