Hello,

the login process as
:~$cat .xsession-errors

/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,
