Bug Description

Binary package hint: bash-completion

if I press TAB it should complete the command, like in "sudo apt-g<TAB> autore<TAB> --pur<TAB> something<TAB>" it should assit me to get "sudo apt-get autoremove --purge something-installed" but instead it has been complaining about missing : somewhere and I loose everything I have type... not sure where to look for (database, conf files, even log files) to try to fix or send you guys... I can try to locate those or even post them If someone helps me
