Since we have over 1100 users (yp) username completion takes some time. If I break while the completion is running, I get an error the next time I try a completion: bash$ ls ~per < takes about 30 sec > ~perf ~perh ~pers bash$ ls ~per<^C> < break after a few seconds > bash$ ls ~per < try again > free: Called with already freed block argument mailing bug report... If I put all users in my local /etc/passwd, I can't reproduce the problem. -- Per Foreby System manager at EFD, Lund Institute of Technology (Lund University) Snail: E-huset, Tekniska Hogskolan i Lund, Box 118, S-221 00 LUND, Sweden.
