It used to propogate the path, but it no longer does this. The default path is hard-coded to "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin". This is the same behaviour as GDM and I think this is a sane default.

It's read by pam_env. /etc/pam.d/lightdm is using that in the same position as /etc/pam.d/gdm, but perhaps lightdm's PAM communication is different such that environment variables set at the auth stage are thrown away by the time it gets to starting a session; it might be productive to try moving pam_env from auth to session? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798277 Title: $PATH does not contain /usr/games on Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10) - /etc/environment not sourced or environment not preserved To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/798277/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
