The behaviour of autocompletion in SUSE 9.0 seems pretty different from SUSE 8.1 eg. ivan@hell:~> cd D[Tab] #works and complete to Documents ivan@hell:~/Documents> ls sylpheed-0.9.6claws-7.src.rpm rpm -vhi ./syl[Tab] #doesn't work...???? hints? annoying.

That is a source rpm, so you can't install it - that's what you are trying to do, rpm doesn't see a binary package. If you do "rpmbuild --rebuild ./syl[Tab], that works. rpm has changed in 9.0, likewise for a .tar.gz file, you have to do "rpmbuild -ta file.tar.gz". Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Linux Only Shop.

I can install spm. That's what I generally do to install the newest version of something. Install the latest spm, give a glance to the .spec file, change it, sobstitute the .tar.bz2 in SOURCES... etc... Anyway unless autocompletion make too many guesses about what I'm going to do I expect that ivan@hell:~/Documents> somecommand someoptions somefi[Tab] will take me to ivan@hell:~/Documents> somecommand someoptions somefile if I didn't use any ", ' in the line and somefile is in the path Typing is boring.

It is not rpm that does autocompletion, but bash. The program 'rpm' is not yet started. There must be a definition file somewhere for autocompletion.

A quick search shows "/usr/share/zsh/4.0.6/functions/_bash_completions", but that's not it. It could be hardcoded :-?
Typing is boring.
