Our bash completion depends on bash-completion 1.90 or later. Only
install where available.

This LGTM (untested)
I think this is the right way to do this: I don't think we should
spam a user with error messages for attempting tab completion with
an older version of bash-completion (which I think you said was the case
with the other version)
Best wishes
Mark

I did test it, at least completely removing bash completion works as
expected.
Unfortunately --with-bash-completion does not override this test because
the order things are processed. Do you think this is a bug? I wondered
if users that "know what they are doing" (TM) might want to force
installation even though the pkg-config test fails.

I thought it was a feature, not a bug, but I'm fine either way.
BR,
Jani.

I can live with the current patch. As you pointed out on IRC, this is
the usual way missing dependencies work. And I think we should avoid
extra complications in the configure script when we can.
