| 20 |
If it is 0.20081219-r1 or earlier, configuration has change as notified by |
| 21 |
ELOG summary after updating it, now you need to use eselect to enable |
| 22 |
bash-completion. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Try as root : eselect bashcomp enable --global base and eselect bashcomp |
| 25 |
enable --global gentoo to get some basics... |
| 26 |
As a normal user, remove the --global switch. |
