bash completion scripts get sourced, not executed, so pulseaudio-bash-completion.sh doesn't need a #! line. - Josh Triplett
Hi, I checked this against PulseAudio v17.0. The bash completion is now shell-completion/bash/pactl, and it still begins with #!/bin/bash. Meson installs this file with install_data() into the bash-completion directory, so it is a sourced completion snippet rather than a standalone executable. Attached is a small DEP-3 quilt patch removing the shebang and following blank line. I tested that the patch applies cleanly to the v17.0 file. Thanks, Thomas Stephens
