Q: In Ubuntu, how does one run gnome-terminal as a login-shell?

A: From within gnome-terminal, choose Edit > Current Profile, then click
on the "Title and Command" tab, and check "Run command as a login
shell".   Click on Close to save the settings.

Now, whenever you start gnome-terminal, it will be a login shell.  That
means that ~/.bash_profile (or ~/.profile) will get read and environment
variables will be set/exported appropriately.
