tipc completion error

[scop]

Just some random poking around tipc completion: tipc lin<TAB>ge<TAB>tol<TAB> gives tipc link get tolerance. Then hitting another tab there gives tipc link get tolerance link, and hitting another tab there spews an error:

error: No such file or directory
Unable to get TIPC nl family id (module loaded?)
error, message initialisation failed

This is on Fedora 23, non-root. @rical, could you have a look?

This is sort of expected behavior, apart from maybe the error looking bad.

This is the synopsis:
tipc link get { tolerance | priority | window } link TIPC-LINK-NAME

When you press the last tab for completing TIPC-LINK-NAME the bash-completion recipe tries to get the tipc link names using the tipc command, which fails as you don't have the TIPC module loaded on your system.

What I perhaps could do is implement a silent TIPC module check here, so that the last tab simply dons't output anything?

Yes, the right thing to do is to just suppress the error message.

"modprobe tipc" will resolve the problem
