[pkg-lxc-devel] Bug#1010843: Bash completion filename conflict with LXD

[Mathias Gibbens]

Source: lxc
Version: 1:4.0.11-1

Hi,

  While reviewing the LXD packaging I've been working on, it was
noticed [1] that the bash completion file that's being shipped needs to
be renamed. Since the LXD client executable is `lxc`, the installed
path would be /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/lxc. However, that
conflicts with a file installed by the lxc package [2]. From d/rules
[3] it looks like symlinks are made of the actual lxc command names
(`lxc-*`) to the supplied completions file.

  Would it be possible to rename how that base file is named when it is
installed to /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/, so it won't
conflict if LXD installs its bash completion in the correction
location?

Thanks,
Mathias
