[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#550943: bash-completion: impossible to start session in gdm

[Ignacio Diez]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.1-1
Severity: critical
Tags: patch
Justification: breaks unrelated software

The new version (1:1.1-1) of bash-completion includes a file (/etc/bash_completion.d/munin-node) which is malformed. When trying to login in gdm I get an error saying that my session was less than 10 seconds long. It also renders a message saying:

/etc/bash_completion.d/munin-node: _munin-node is not a valid identifier.


Changing dashes (-) for underscores (_) in certain places in the file solves the problem.
