Bug description:
  Bash completion for Inkscape does not work in Ubuntu 18.04. It will
  for example suggest non-svg files.

  The reason seems to be that /usr/share/bash-
  completion/completions/inkscape uses the have() function, which is
  temporarily defined in /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion, but
  then unset at the end of that file.

  Workaround: Copy /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/inkscape to
  ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/inkscape and remove the
  uses of "have".

  The bash completion for some other commands seem to use have() too,
  e.g. jackd, ufw, cowbuilder, dpatch_edit_patch, and axi-cache, so bash
  completion for these commands will presumably not work either.


  From /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion:
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # Backwards compatibility for compat completions that use have().
  # @deprecated should no longer be used; generally not needed with dynamically
  #             loaded completions, and _have is suitable for runtime use.
  have()
  {
      unset -v have
      _have $1 && have=yes
  }
  [...]
  unset -f have
  unset have
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  From /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/inkscape:
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  [...]
  have inkscape &&
  _inkscape()
  {
    [...]
  }
  [ "${have:-}" ] && complete -F _inkscape $filenames inkscape
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
