It has messed up multiple commands for me for a long time. Have reported
some of them, have opened threads on mailing-lists, but it hasn't lead
to anything.

  $ cd some-srpms-dir
  $ dnf builddep foo<TAB>
  $ dnf builddep foo<TAB><TAB>

It doesn't complete anything. No matter how often I press TAB.
Compared with:

  $ yum-builddep foo<TAB>

It queries the RPM database, which is something I don't want, and only
then shows multiple pages of local files and installed packages, asking me
to page through them, so I may add refine my completion request.

If I uninstall bash-completion package, at least both commands behave
the same, and "dnf builddep ..." becomes usable again.
