Quoting the docs: For security reasons tt(compinit) also checks if the completion system would use files not owned by root or by the current user, or files in directories that are world- or group-writable or that are not owned by root or by the current user. If such files or directories are found, tt(compinit) will ask if the completion system should really be used. To avoid these tests and make all files found be used without asking, use the option tt(-u), and to make tt(compinit) silently ignore all insecure files and directories use the option tt(-i). This security check is skipped entirely when the tt(-C) option is given. And both of `compinit -i' and `compinit -u' work for me as described.
