Package: bash-completion
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

killall expects only the command name without arguments or path of the process to kill, e.g. if you want to kill the process with the command line "/usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system", you would have to do "killall dbus-daemon". However, bash_completion for killall tries to find matches using the complete command line.

The following patch addresses this issue by using "ps axo comm" instead of "ps axo command".

Since this is a clone of the original bug, I will close it rather than
reassigning.
