Title: lightdm forgets to source /etc/profile and ~/.profile Status in Light Display Manager: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” package in Debian: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: lightdm /etc/gdm/Xsession had this code: # First read /etc/profile and .profile test -f /etc/profile && . /etc/profile test -f "$HOME/.profile" && . "$HOME/.profile" # Second read /etc/xprofile and .xprofile for X specific setup test -f /etc/xprofile && . /etc/xprofile test -f "$HOME/.xprofile" && . "$HOME/.xprofile" so that, for example, ~/bin gets added to the path (by the default ~/.profile), and any user-customized environment setup gets run. After switching from gdm to lightdm, this no longer happens. This is going to be a regression now that lightdm is becoming the default display manager.
