...mission denied The culprit? We use pkg-config to ask bash-completion where it would install user completion scripts. bash-completion.pc states: prefix=/usr completionsdir=${prefix}/share/bash-completion/completions but pkg-config --variable defaults to flattening the ${prefix} in our use of the PKG_CHECK_VAR() macro, which in turn means that './configure --prefix=$HOME/subdir' still uses an absolute path pointing to a root-owned directory (rather than one relative to our desired ${prefix}) in our definition of bashcompsdir. The solution? Tell pkg-config to NOT flatten the prefix variable. Sig...

...ew log filter. - New blocksize filter. - New nozero filter. - New fua filter. - New can_zero, can_fua methods and better handling of FUA. - New nbdkit_realpath function. - Better handling of shutdown. - New ext2 plugin. - Bash tab completion. - New zero plugin. - New random plugin. - New PKG_CHECK_VAR variables. - TLS-PSK authentication. - New Tcl plugin (posted for review). - Of course numerous smaller bug fixes and improvements. I'm also going to propose that we try to get 1.4 into RHEL 8, which means we will need to do this branching fairly quickly, in the next few weeks. Let me know...
