Subject: bug#14680: 24.3.50; `locate-file-completion' gives wrong candidates - *.elc.elc and no *.el
Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2013 14:15:08 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <50f28bc4-3022-4373-bb20-04f234ef64ab@default> (raw)
emacs -Q
Add files named isearch+.el, isearch+.el~, and isearch+.elc to the
current directory, then (add-to-list 'load-path ".") Then eval this:
(completing-read "Library name: "
'locate-file-completion
(cons load-path (find-library-suffixes))
nil nil nil (thing-at-point 'symbol))
Then type `isearch+ TAB TAB'. The candidates shown are these:
isearch+ isearch+.elc
isearch+.elc.elc isearch+.el~
There should be no *.elc.elc here, and there should be *.el (missing).
The problem seems to arise when `locate-file-completion-table' invokes:
(file-name-all-completions "isearch+" "."). That returns this:
("isearch+.el~" "isearch+.elc.elc" "isearch+.elc" "isearch+.el")
Then, since "isearch+.el" is matched by "\\(\\.el\\(?:\\.gz\\)?\\)\\'",
it is not included as a candidate.
