I did look how this is handled for other packages in Debian (since I've no idea if you can search package contents in Fedora): # apt-file search -l '/etc/bash_completion.d/' | wc -l 171 # apt-file search -l '/usr/share/zsh/functions/Completion' | wc -l 6 So this seems pretty standard, really (especially in case of bash). You could say the same thing with "Why install .desktop files for the login manager, Arch comes with none by default", or "why install example scripts, most people won't use them", etc. My point still is this: Why make it harder for all the users who want completion (with bash AND zsh, that's probably around 100% of the hlwm users), when there is no downside (except using 834 *bytes* on the filesystem) for all the others?
