Use POSIX-compliant function names in bash completion · ea26a2c9Lucas Werkmeister authored
When running in posix mode (for example, because it was invoked as `sh`, or with the --posix option), bash rejects the function names previously used because they contain hyphens, which are not legal POSIX names, and exits immediately. This is a particularly serious problem on a system in which the following three conditions hold: 1. The `sh` executable is provided by bash, e. g. via a symlink 2. Gnome Display Manager is used to launch X sessions 3. Bash completion is loaded in the (system or user) profile file instead of in the bashrc file In that case, GDM's Xsession script (run with `sh`, i. e., bash in posix mode) sources the profile files, thus causing the shell to load the bash completion files. Upon encountering the non-POSIX-compliant function names, bash would then exit, immediately ending the X session. Fixes #521. Signed-off-by:Lucas Werkmeister <mail@lucaswerkmeister.de>
