Exactly. which source gives nothing.

If I run the command at non-elevated level I get useful results and the 
environment is filled

source /etc/lsb-release

echo $DISTRIB_CODENAME

bionic

sudo source /etc/lsb-release

[sudo] password for ubuntu: 

sudo: source: command not found


So it is a matter of elevated access level, but I just don't know how to 
run that at lower level...
