latimerio, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg <replace-with-bug-number>

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  login into xsession fails with xsession-errors "not a valid
  identifier"

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In my .bashrc I have defined a function named ‘l.’ to list dot-files only.
  This has worked with all linuxes so far and does not give any error with bash 
when I source .bashrc so I regard it as an allowed function name.
  After I upgraded to ubuntu12 I get the following entry in my .xsession-errors
  /root/home/bmdadm/.bashrc: line 70: `l.’: not a valid identifier
  I have commented the function and then get
  cat .xsession-errors
  /etc/bash_completion.d/apport_completion: line 107: `_apport-bug’: not a 
valid identifier

  It seems that the unitiy Xserver has some bugs or flaws as it complains about 
identifiers which are allowed syntax in bash.
  There are other bash_completion packages which also use '_' as the first 
characters so the Xserver needs to accept those variable or function names.
