Enable programmable bash completion in debian lenny

The really awesome bash completion in debian seems to be an extra package now, which has to be installed. After sourcing /etc/bash_completion it completes almost everything (package names in apt... etc) :-)

To make this permanent, put something like this in your .bashrc:

if [ -f /etc/bash_completion]; then

source /etc/bash_completion

fi
