I know. So it looks like we had some miscommunication in #sbopkg. I
don't see the point of this. If someone wants to install
bash_completion, then they do so and they get sbopkg completions. And
that's that package; not sbopkg. What I thought you were offering was a
simple, independent, self-contained file such as the git or mercurial
completion files. Something like that would be nice to include in
sbopkg. But I don't want a file in sbopkg that doesn't work unless you
install something else.

Yeah, I didn't figure it would - I just meant that bash-completion-1.2
seems to include overhead that could be reduced for simple sbopkg
completion.
