This is one place where I think we should probably deviate from
upstream's intentions (and I think that upstream will likely
catch up to the new bash-completion on this sooner or later).
Old bash-completion (before 2.x) put the packaged completions
files in /etc/bash-completion.d/ -- while that directory is still
supported, /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ seems to be
intended as the systemwide/packaged completions directory whereas
/etc/bash-completion.d/ seems intended for local system overrides
and additions.
