bug#19736:

[Carlos Pita]

Just in case, here is the modified code for both completion setups
(I'm not listing the minor changes to
python-shell-completion-native-get-completions below):


(defcustom python-shell-completion-setup-code
  "def __PYTHON_EL_get_completions(text):

                  '__IPYTHON__active' in builtins)
    completions = []
    try:
        if is_ipython:
            splits = text.split()

        else:  # Never do this in IPython as it overrides the completer!
