It depends a bit on your distro. I believe it's more or less a stock
feature on Debian, requiring only the uncommenting of a line in one of
the skeleton /etc files. On Gentoo, you just

    emerge bash-completion bash-completion-config

and then make the edits to your config files described by the output
of the ebuild. (It may even be that more recent releases already
include the lines necessary to activate bash-completion, merely
commented out.)

For other distros, I'm not sure. The URL Breen Mullins helpfully
provided <http://www.caliban.org/bash/> might let you fetch the
tarball yourself if you're feeling adventurous.
