If you're in charge of the distro, and if the variables are fairly static, a) set them via the pam_env PAM module (i.e. /etc/environment), or b) set them with Environment= in "user@.service". That said, in many distributions Xsession already calls `dbus-update-activation-environment…` right after having sourced all the Xsession.d scripts. -- Mantas Mikulėnas <graw...@gmail.com>
