Hi,

So it's gnome-shell which needs a dependency on bash-completion.
We shouldn't (must not?) rely on other ports to pull in our
dependencies.

p11-kit it is (looks like the BASH option there caused me some trouble some
time ago - don't know what, but it was late and I was angry, according to
git).

When installing gnome, that one file doesn't matter.
But we should get the dependencies right.

Christoph
