Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.10-1
Severity: normal

No working X (!):
Answered "yes" (default) with dash (/bin/sh linked to /bin/dash) results to a few big letters on the screen, the only visible letters are (in german):
... problem

... .
... e, sich

~$ cat .xsession-errors
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...

34:fi

/etc/bash_completion:

Workaround:
Don't link dash as /bin/sh (dpkg-reconfigure dash, no).
