Package: debconf
Version: 1.5.13
Severity: normal
/etc/bash_completion.d/debconf contains the invalid identifiers
_debconf-show and debconf-showi. The hyphen-minus is invalid, just
replace it with an underscore.
This prevented me from logging in, therefore the elevated severity.

this. Thanks for your report.
