I added bash completion for Maven following the docs:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-bash-m2-completion.html

Everything works well except for goals that use a colon. For instance, instead of

mvn eclipse:eclipse

completion escapes the colon

mvn eclipse\:eclipse

Any suggestions how this can be fixed? I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 (2.6.27-17-generic) and

$ bash -version
GNU bash, version 3.2.39(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu)

bash shell maven-2 ubuntu autocomplete
