[Touch-packages] [Bug 1771858] Re: /snap/bin not in default PATH for units, snapd should ship system-environment-generators to inject /snap/bin into $PATH
@xnox The grub config makes me believe the aws image is booted with initramfs.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1771858] Re: /snap/bin not in default PATH for units, snapd should ship system-environment-generators to inject /snap/bin into $PATH
Just noticed what might be a regression from this fix. `/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin` are now missing from unit on newest ubuntu bionic ami (us-east-1: ami-012fd5eb46f56731f) ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ dpkg-query -W systemd systemd 237-3ubuntu10.11 ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo systemd-run /usr/bin/env Running as unit: run-r6c6668bf9774455dbb628d2d79de5949.service ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ journalctl -e | grep PATH= Feb 01 20:46:24 ubuntu env[6051]: PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/snap/bin The prior ami (us-east-1: ami-0b86cfbff176b7d3a) doesn't have this issue. So I checked for differences. I noticed that if I remove `/usr/lib/systemd/system-environment-generators/snapd-env-generator` and reboot then I get better output: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo systemd-run /usr/bin/env Running as unit: run-r6c6668bf9774455dbb628d2d79de5949.service ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ journalctl -e | grep PATH= Feb 01 20:51:44 ubuntu env[3337]: PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771858 Title: /snap/bin not in default PATH for units, snapd should ship system- environment-generators to inject /snap/bin into $PATH Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in snapd source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in snapd source package in Bionic: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in snapd source package in Cosmic: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] * This means that software installed via snap isn't transparently available for units to use.
