Your second example has double quotes within double quotes and I'm wondering if that's getting rendered as "yum --debuglevel=" 1 " install ..."

In that specific example (--debuglevel="1"), you don't need the quotes. But, if that's just an example and you really use command-line arguments that need to be quoted, for instance because they contain spaces, maybe you could just use \ to protect spaces like: # command "a b" c would become: # command a\ b c (2 params) which is different from: # command a b c (3 params) just escaping the space to prevent bash from considering "a\ b" as two words). Also, maybe it's bash completion for yum that is your problem, did you try disabling yum-specific completion? That would let you still the ability to use path completion. Regards, -- wwp
