If you have _only_ bash \u003e= 4.2 installed, you can\ndo this by using:\n\n```bash\n# Use bash-completion, if available, and avoid double-sourcing\n[[ $PS1 \u0026\u0026\n  ! ${BASH_COMPLETION_VERSINFO:-} \u0026\u0026\n  -f /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion ]] \u0026\u0026\n    . /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion\n```\n\nIf you have older bash versions in use, their loading of `bash_completion`\nshould be prevented. See further for more info.\n\nIf you don\u0027t have the package readily available for your distribution, or\nyou simply don\u0027t want to use one, you can install bash completion using the\nstandard commands for GNU autotools packages:\n\n```shell\nautoreconf -i      # if not installing from prepared release tarball\n./configure\nmake               # GNU make required\nmake check         # optional\nmake install       # as root\nmake installcheck  # optional, requires python3 with pytest \u003e= 3.6, pexpect\n```\n\nThese commands install the completions and helpers, as well as a\n`profile.d` scri",
