** Description changed: [Impact] * This means that software installed via snap isn't transparently available for units to use. As snaps are first-class citizens in Ubuntu, we should update the PATH. * When a generator started to be provided by systemd, it was recognized that $PATH is not correctly set, nonetheless, due to an environment bug that systemd generators run in. [Testcase] # make snapd-env-generator executable if it is not $ sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/systemd/system-environment-generators/snapd-env-generator - # reboot or run systemctl-daemon-reload, then test the effect of the fix + # reboot or run systemctl daemon-reload, then test the effect of the fix $ systemd-run /usr/bin/env $ journalctl -e | grep PATH Output should contain /snap/bin Output should contain a complete and a valid PATH, i.e. PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/snap/bin" or similar. [Regression Potential] * snapd generator was already fixed separately to cause no harm, when running under a broken systemd. With the corrected environment, generators will now run with a correct PATH out of the box. A slight change of PATH will be observed by all generators, when running in containers/initramfs-less boots. However most generators will not be affected as they typically do not execute external binaries.
