[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#672388: npm: completion in Zsh causes error message regarding missing /usr/share/npm/lib/utils/completion.sh

[Michael Prokop]

Package: npm
Version: 1.1.4~dfsg-1
Severity: normal


I'm using Zsh:

% zsh --version
zsh 4.3.17 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)

which provides a completion in its package
(/usr/share/zsh/functions/Completion/Unix/_npm), but
there seems to be something fishy in the npm package.

When I press the tab key after 'npm ' then I get:

| % npm 
| npm ERR! Error: ENOENT, open '/usr/share/npm/lib/utils/completion.sh'
| npm ERR! You may report this log at:

This is the same output I also get when manually running the command
/usr/share/zsh/functions/Completion/Unix/_npm uses:

| % npm completion --color false --loglevel error --
| [<snip same message as above>]

Regarding /usr/share/npm/lib/utils/completion.sh - this file doesn't
exist:

% ls -la /usr/share/npm/lib/utils/completion.sh
ls: cannot access /usr/share/npm/lib/utils/completion.sh: No such file or directory
