Public bug reported:
snapd is creating a file /etc/profile.d/snapd.sh which is overwriting the PATH
and XDG_DATA_DIRS variables:
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/builddir/.local/bin:/builddir/bin:/snap/bin
if [ -z "" ]; then
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
else
XDG_DATA_DIRS="":/var/lib/snapd/desktop
fi
export XDG_DATA_DIRS
This is on Fedora 24 GNOME version. Snapd was installed using the Copr
repo.
Version information from `dnf info snapd`

What was expected:
PATH variable with its default value appended with /snap/bin.
XDG_DATA_DIRS variable with its default value appended with
/var/lib/snapd/desktop.
What happened instead:
The default value of PATH variable is overwritten.
The default value of XDG_DATA_DIRS is overwritten.
A simple fix which I used:
PATH=$PATH:/snap/bin
XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
