Environment Variables from ~/.profile ignored

[twelvegates]

Environment variables set in ~/.profile and ~/.bash_profile are ignored in the
Gnome desktop environment if the Gnome-session is launched by GDM.
This behaviour is the same like in Debian.
But in Fedora Core 4 and FreeBSD it works.

Thanks for your bug. That's a gdm issue. There is a Debian bug about it:

I will change that after 5.10

This upload fixes the issue:

 gdm (2.13.0.1-0ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream version:
     - Complete redesign of gdmsetup so it follows usability recommendation
       mockups by Calum Benson.
     - gdmsetup now supports drag-and-drop for new themes.
     - the chooser GUI has been HIGified.
     - now GDM warns correctly about caps lock if an alternate keymap
       is enabled. kbGetState is used instead of XkbGetIndicator State.
       (Ubuntu: #15792).
   * Updated most of the patches for the upstream code changes.
   * debian/init:
     - clean a confusing message (Ubuntu: #17211).
   * debian/patches/04_menu_changes.patch:
     - hide the new login and new login nested menu items (MenusRevisited).
   * debian/Xsession:
     - use .profile file (Ubuntu: #14206).
