Title:
lightdm forgets to source /etc/profile and
Derek, sourcing .profile makes perfect sense. You can't rely on having a
terminal or really being interactive or anything else _anyway_, and in
practice, long experience shows that sourcing profile in Xsession
actually doesn't cause any problems in practice. Display managers should
_always_ source
Sigh. Display managers should NEVER source .profile at all... that
file is exclusively for interactive shells, as is explicitly stated in
all of the man pages of every shell ever. I just opened Bug #1468832
about this, where I also explained how to properly accomplish what
people want here.

Same happens with kubuntu vivid and sddm. Should this be fixed
individually in each session manager?

Right. While that works in Ubuntu too, sourcing of /etc/profile and
~/.profile by the DM is established practice in Ubuntu since long,

If it is Ubuntu policy that '~/.profile' get sourced by the display
manger, all the display managers should do it and the sample file should
not indicate it is intended for the login shell.

Note that the profile is sourced at the top of /usr/sbin/lightdm-
session, and the bottom of lightdm-session runs everything in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d. The final file is 99x11-common_start, which is exec
$STARTUP. Thus this never returns to the exec in lightdm-session. Since

Sounds unlikely to me; it should be sourced in /usr/sbin/lightdm-
session.
Please note that this bug was closed 2.5 years ago. You may want to ask
for help e.g. at
You are right. I thought it was not sourced since I was getting an umask
different from that set in .profile. But in fact, I am experiencing
another bug, where upstart messes the umask set in .profile. Sorry for
the noise.

I thought this was catching me (on oneiric) but it turns out that the
only variable that wasn't taking effect from my .profile was
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. And that seems to be due to bug 47958.

This bug was fixed in the /etc/lightdm/Xsession script, which is part of the
Debian/Ubuntu packaging, not upstream:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/oneiric/lightdm/oneiric/revision/10
So I think this will need to be dealt with on the Gentoo side, and
there’s nothing to reopen
Yeah sorry I posted to the wrong bug
