Comments
I can't reproduce, and bash completion is just moved from .app into the Homebrew managed folder, I didn't think it is problem of Homebrew. |

Verification
--force
.brew update-reset && brew update
and retried my command.brew doctor

Terminal.app
WezTerm:
iTerm:
The other issue is adding a bash completion which is not compatible with macOS Bash version 3.2, reported here:
