Bug ID: 487147
Summary: INVOCATION_ID and JOURNAL_STREAM environment variables
should not be propagated from plasmashell
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Startup process
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: ctx...@gmail.com
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Plasmashell should not give its $INVOCATION_ID and $JOURNAL_STREAM environment
variable to child processes. These are supposed to be set by systemd when
starting an application so that this application can detect that it runs under
systemd as a service and use sd-journal API to enhance logging for example.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch a plasma session using systemd
2. Starts a terminal emulator (konsole, kitty, ...)
3. run `echo $JOURNAL_STREAM`
OBSERVED RESULT
Both `$INVOCATION_ID` and `$JOURNAL_STREAM` are defined and have the same
values as within `plasmashell`. This is confirmed by `sudo strings
/proc/$(pidof plasmashell)/environ | grep JOURNAL`
EXPECTED RESULT
`$INVOCATION_ID` and `$JOURNAL_STREAM` should NOT be defined.
I checked the expected result with Ubuntu GDDM.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.8.9-arch1-2
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Tested on with a wayland session, will try with X11 in few hours.
Documentation about those variables:

Some comments on other unrelated bugs gives a full env dump, showing that those
variables are also, wrongly, defined in their situations:
