[SOLVED] Re: bash completion for port command does not work

[Andre Massing]

Hi!

The problem was that _tar function which is responsible for the 
completion was not available,
because I recently reordered my .profile and moved completion sourcing 
before adding /opt/local/ PATHs.
This causes that the _tar was not loaded (the existence of the port 
command in PATH  is prechecked)
So a single line swap in .profile can cause some headaches if you not 
think about what your are doing :)

Cheers,
Andre
