[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#645693: bash-completion files of grub and git prevent xsession to start with gdm3

[Thomas Mueller]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.3-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

due to *possible* errors within /etc/bash_completion.d/git and /etc/bash_completion.d/grub, gdm3
cannot start the xsession.

After purging bash_completion logon works find.

The issue is could be within:
 - bash_completion, which maybe is not that fail safe on script execution
 - git and grub, because the scripts have errors
 - gdm3, because it isn't that fail safe as well
 - *any other suspect*

 
I have no idea what the root cause is, please try to find a solution.

Thanks alot,

Thomas
