Hello,
I uses debian experimental+ Sid apt-pinned.with today's upgrade I
ended up with cant login into my GNOME Desktop.the error is showing on
the login process as
:~$cat .xsession-errors
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: running: /usr/bin/sessreg -a -w
/var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l
":0" "root"
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
/etc/bash_completion.d/debconf: line 10: `_debconf-show': not a valid identifier
While upto gdm screen everything seems alright.
the line contains:
/etc/bash_completion.d/debconf: line 10: `_debconf-show': not a valid identifier
I checked that file and its contents are below:
~# cat /etc/bash_completion.d/debconf
have debconf-show &&
_debconf-show()
{
local cur
COMPREPLY=()
cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
COMPREPLY=($( compgen -W '--listowners --listdbs --db=' -- $cur ) \
$( apt-cache pkgnames -- $cur ) )
}
complete -F _debconf-show debconf-show
the files source was from the package "debconf".
I logged into this session with gnome by running gnome-session along
with startx :(
Hope this bug get fixed upstream.
truely,
Prakash

Sounds like local configuration error, rather than a gdm bug, so closing
this. Thanks for your report.
