[pkg-lxc-devel] Bug#840541: lxc: please support bash completion

[Brian Minton]

Package: lxc
Version: 1:2.0.5-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I'd like to see the lxc commands support bash_completion.  For instance:

lxc-create -B <tab> should show a list of backing store types.  Instead
it shows a list of filesystem objects in the current directory.

thanks,
Brian Minton
