Upgrade to Debian 11 Bullseye - register-python-argcomplete not found

[cortex...@gmail.com]

Debian 11 removed python 2 version.

When logging to server, there are such errors:

-bash: register-python-argcomplete: command not found

SOMESERVER ~ # grep argcomplete /etc/bash_completion.d/*

/etc/bash_completion.d/barman:eval "$(register-python-argcomplete barman)"

Argcomplete is now python 3 version:

i   bash-completion                                                                                - programmable completion for the bash shell

i A python3-argcomplete                                                                            - bash tab completion for argparse (for Python 3)

Use a newer version of Barman.

$ cat scripts/barman.bash_completion
eval "$((register-python-argcomplete3 barman ||
register-python-argcomplete barman) 2>/dev/null)"

# apt-cache policy barman

barman:

  Installed: 2.13-1.pgdg110+1

  Candidate: 2.13-1.pgdg110+1

  Version table:

 *** 2.13-1.pgdg110+1 995

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

There is no newer version. Barman package was originally installed years ago and upgraded as new versions arrived. Probably some upgrade missed changing the script definition.

Does your /etc/bash_completion.d/barman actually belong to the barman
package? The current package installs
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/barman.

I don't have access to old deb packages, so can't 200% confirm it, but i didn't found any package with "barman" in name on deb webpages from stretch to bullseye. I deleted it, because there is version in /usr/share...
