...

why would a separate package be necessary only for sudo completion,

It's not only for sudo. bash-completion package includes completion for various programs:

...

ls -1 /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ | wc -l 586

...

and why would this not be installed as default? It used to be pulled in with bash, but the bash maintainer discontinued it later:

...

also, are the packages themselves not supposed to have completion? ie zypper install bash-comp<TAB> does not work.

Hm, this works for me. zypper installs some bash-completion on its own. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
