It does. However, if you're trying to avoid typing a path for dnf, you
always get a space right after the folder name when you hit <tab> and
you need to delete it if you want to move further down the tree. For
me that's one of the most annoying things with bash completion for
dnf.
But regardless, that's something to fix in the dnf bash completion
scripts, not a reason to completely disable completion as the earlier
poster said.
