Sorry, I did indeed mean 2009.. time does fly! This is with Jaunty, and I think the effect I'm seeing is a known "feature" of ssh-agent being set GID. glibc will strip certain sensitive environment variables.
The funny thing is.. this was working for a while, but I can't figure out what changed. Either the env-var stripping wasn't working, or my system wasn't running the desktop as a sub-process of ssh-agent. For now, I've worked around my issue by adding my local gEDA testing install folder to /etc/ld.so.conf.d, although that wouldn't work well if I wasn't "root" as well as pcjc2. As an alternative.. would it be possible to run ~/.profile from a subprocess of ssh-agent as well? (Or to re-set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the sub-process run by ssh-agent?) -- LD_LIBRARY_PATH set in ~/.profile doesn't stick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
