2020-07-09 01:02:56 Andrew Hayzen description Package contains this file: /usr/share/gdm/env.d/flatpak.env With this single line content: XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share/:/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/ This is setting the XDG_DATA_DIRS variable, irrespective of it's preexisting value. In my system I have snapd installed and I have a local configuration for that variable under .config/environment.d/, which gets overwritten and causes issues. ---- 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.10 Release: 18.10 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center flatpak: Installed: 1.0.4-1 Candidate: 1.0.4-1 Version table: *** 1.0.4-1 500 500 http://ie.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu cosmic/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) What you expected to happen To have XDG_DATA_DIRS variable populated with the package's value as well as my own. 4) What happened instead Only the configuration from flatpak's package survived. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.10 Package: flatpak 1.0.4-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.18.0-10.11-generic 4.18.12 Uname: Linux 4.18.0-10-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu13 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: GNOME Date: Tue Nov 6 00:55:32 2018 InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-05-16 (173 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20180426) SourcePackage: flatpak UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to cosmic on 2018-10-18 (18 days ago) [Impact] Flatpak gdm environment overwrites any custom configuration (eg in ~/.config/environment.d ) while using the Wayland session. [Test Case] Create a local environment configuration $ mkdir -p ~/.config/environment.d $ echo "XDG_DATA_DIRS=${XDG_DATA_DIRS}:/tmp" >> ~/.config/environment.d/test.conf Reboot and ensure you use the Wayland session. Then check your XDG_DATA_DIRS from systemctl, the issue occurs when /tmp is not set, the issue is resolved if it is set. $ systemctl --user show-environment |grep XDG_DATA_DIRS [Regression Potential] Low. This only affects users using the Wayland session with a custom environment (which are both non-standard configuration).
